I am running a MGB100 with    Version Number:S4.00c3080110

it sits on my network fine an gets accessed by windows machines no problem

I have just set up a linux machine ( P3 450 , 128meg , 40gig - mini ubuntu install via net with ssh , x11vnc , icewm , pcman and qbitorrent )

now I would like the linux box to mount the MGB100 as a network drive on boot so I can move files to/from it with pcman

so far in /etc/fstab  I have tried these combinations with no success

//10.2.2.20/                    /mnt/mgb100 smbfs  username=admin,password=password 0 0
//10.2.2.20/c                  /mnt/mgb100 smbfs  username=admin,password=password 0 0
//10.2.2.20/Storage         /mnt/mgb100 smbfs  username=admin,password=password 0 0

//10.2.2.20/                   /mnt/mgb100 ext3fs  username=admin,password=password 0 0
//10.2.2.20/c                  /mnt/mgb100 ext3fs  username=admin,password=password 0 0
//10.2.2.20/Storage         /mnt/mgb100 ext3fs  username=admin,password=password 0 0


anyone with ideas is appreciated

I installed smb4k which allowed me to see the MGB100 along with other shares on my network , but I have not managed to mount it yet.

I have placed that problem on the backburner at the moment while I am playing with a wrt54GL , openwrt and a sd/mmc mod.

thanks Ernst

created a dir in the user home dir with mkdir MGB100
sudo mount -t cifs "//10.2.2.20/Storage" ~/MGB100 -o user=admin,pass=password,dom=workgroup

that works fine

putting mount -t cifs "//10.2.2.20/Storage"  /home/user/MGB100 -o user=admin,pass=passowrd,dom=workgroup

into /etc/fstab does not.

will keep having a play and see - am happy that with your help I have progressed forward.
