Network Shares Automount (ScanMounts) - SMB connection failing

Hi,

I have recently come across the Network Shares Automount package on the Custom Modules. It looks perfect for what I need (Archiving some recordings off the box, but making them easily accessible again).

Unfortunately, although I have read many of the posts here Network-Shares-Automount I can't get it to work. If anyone has any bright ideas / help, it would be much appreciated.

I have installed:
Virtual-Disk2 2.0-5 is also installed

Web interface version: 1.5.3
Custom firmware version: 3.13 (build 4028)
Humax Version: 1.03.12 (kernel HDR_CFW_3.13)
Loader Version: a7.33

The script appears in mod/sbin/scanmounts

I have configured the settings in the WebIf Browser SMB modsettings folder
domain=Domain or Workgroup (4.0KiB)
folder=Folder1_Folder2 (4.0KiB)
host=192_168_0_3 (4.0KiB)
mac=ABABABABABAB (only needed for wakeUp) (4.0KiB)
password=mysecret (4.0KiB)
shareFolder=off (4.0KiB)
user=myuser (4.0KiB)
wakeConstantly? (4.0KiB)
wakeNow? (4.0KiB)

I have tested the credentials using Windows "net use" and the drive mapped without concern.
I created the credentials specially for the Hummy and they provide Read Only access to the device. However, Read-Write access didn't seem to make any difference as far as I could tell. (And I was just trying to protect from the potential of deleting the share on the hummy, and wiping my store off my network!)

I have enabled SMB1 on the network storage system

The scanmounts log repeatedly states the following:
2146 umount: can't forcibly umount /media/NetFld: Invalid argument
2145 Mount failed...
2144 mount: mounting //192.168.0.3/Folder1/Folder2 on /media/NetFld failed: Permission denied
2143 mount -t cifs //192.168.0.3/Folder1/Folder2 /media/NetFld -o user=myuser,password=#######,domain=Domain or Workgroup,unc=\\192.168.0.3\Folder1\Folder2
2142 2024-11-18 23:26:41 - 192.168.0.3 is on-line - attempting to mount NetFld

I'm unable to fathom what the permission is that is denied, and haven't got much further trying to understand the script enough to run some coarse tests.

Any pointers really gratefully received!

Kind regards,
 
Not sure if there are other issues, but is 'domain=' set correctly?
Eg it may be the default 'WORKGROUP', unless you've set it to something else.
