Lack of smb connection - I'm slowly going nuts here

Hello,

Since zapping my HDR and starting over, i've been trying to get it to mount a file share from my mac as it used to do.

I've tried ifs - this used to work fine - can't get it to fly now and i've no idea why.

so

I've gone back to smb, first trying with apples out-of-the-box offering in osx mavericks. No joy. Seems the version apple use isn't compatible with much more than itself (thanks apple).

So

I found SMBUp which installs the samba we all know and love - except I can seem to get this to work either!!

Code:
192.168.0.192 is on-line - attempting to mount MINIMAC_SMB
mount -t cifs //192.168.0.192/MEDIA /media/MINIMAC_SMB -o user=Parents,password=xxxx,domain=WORKGROUP,unc=\\192.168.0.192\MEDIA


SAMBA says:

Code:
192.168.0.5 (192.168.0.5) connect to service MEDIA initially as user parents (uid=501, gid=20) (pid 2994)
getpeername failed. Error was Invalid argument
read_socket_with_timeout: client 0.0.0.0 read error = Invalid argument.
192.168.0.5 (192.168.0.5) closed connection to service MEDIA

Can anyone reading this help?

Please?


Cheers
 
To clarify... you are trying to access material held on the Mac from the HDR-FOX as a file share?

You need NFS for that, not SMB. The easy way to do this is to use the network-shares-automount package, see info HERE (click).
