    cant mount samba or nfs share!

    ok i have a dm500s
    i seem to be having great issue's trying to mount my samba & nfs share
    i know these share are setup correctly as i have 10 pc's (mix of windows/mac/linux) which can all access the shares fine except for my dreambox!

    my dreambox has the correct ip address & it can access the web so it aint that

    i have tried to setup the samba shares as NFS shares too & again everything on my lan canm access them but the dreambox refuses to and reports:

    /var/mnt/Films > smbmount //192.168.1.1/data2 /mnt/Films PASSWORD -U tom
    Added interface ip=127.0.0.1 bcast=127.255.255.255 nmask=255.0.0.0
    Server time is Sun Sep 6 15:30:54 2009
    Timezone is UTC+1.0
    Session setup failed for username=tom myname=DREAMBOX destname=192.168.1.1 ERRDOS - ERRnoaccess (Access denied.)
    You might find the -U, -W or -n options useful
    Sometimes you have to use `-n USERNAME' (particularly with OS/2)
    Some servers also insist on uppercase-only passwords

    yes this is from a telnet session to my dreambox as enigma does not display the full error!

    the local folder /mnt/Films is present (created via enigma & therefore it has the correct permissions)

    the samba server is NOT locked to allow access to these shares from certain IP addresses as i trust my lan & firewwall so i know it is not that!

    i have tried to use CIFS aswell but i get the same problem.
    i have tried to add the share via enigma tv interface & web gui aswell as telnet and all have failed!

    please can someone assit me in this.

    ok got it fixed

    i had to run this command from a telnet session:

    mount -t cifs -o username=whoever,password=passwd //192.168.0.2/Recordings /var/mnt/smb

    Just substitute your username, password, i/p address, directories

    only problem i have now is that i cant see the folders in enigma!

    i'll keep ya posted if i work it out but feel free to add to this if you know how this can be fixed/configured

    PS:
    im wondering if i need to install a plugin or something to make enigma aware of .avi files & tell it how to handle them.
