I am trying to mount a smb share on my embedded Linux running on ARM (3.6.9) with busybox 1.21
mount -t cifs //192.168.0.12/mydata /mnt/myData
results in an invalid argument error:
mount: mounting /192.168.0.12/mydata/ on /mnt/myData failed: Invalid argument
CIFS support is definetly installed and the directories exist. Is there any syntax difference in busybox's mount command? Thank in advance!
2Just double checking that CIFS support is installed, does the file
/sbin/mount.cifs
exist? – Cristian Ciupitu – 2014-06-29T00:08:25.027Can you please give the exact error message? And where is the
user
option mentioned in the question title in your command? Oh, and where do you give the username/password for this share? – mpy – 2013-06-24T07:12:53.780Sorry, I messed up. Wrote the title when I still had a different error message. – tzippy – 2013-06-24T07:16:05.203
With busybox v1.1.3 this command succeeds:
mount -t cifs //192.168.1.11/Files /mnt/files -o username=windows_user,password=windows_pwd
, so obviously no general problem. Does the mount command with increased verbosity-vvv
give some more hints? – mpy – 2013-06-24T19:16:06.660
