Re: Connecting to Win10 shares on MINT 21.3
I used to have my old MINT 19.1 setup for sharing with shared Windows Files/Folders years ago, and have completely forgotten how to go about setting this up again! If I remember correctly, it was NOT that difficult a thing to do? Don't feel bad that you don't remember how to do it because it's comp...

Re: desktop icons appear after two minutes using NAS shares (SOLVED)
Not to get obsessively teck-winnie about this but: According to man systemd.mount : noauto, auto With noauto, the mount unit will not be added as a dependency for local-fs.target or remote-fs.target. This means that it will not be mounted automatically during boot, unless it is pulled in by some oth...

Re: How to enable shared clipboard or files in VirtualBox?
Based only on that picture you have no shared folders so there is nothing to mount.

Re: Linux Mint can't find known-good Samba Share
I'm not disagreeing with the recommendation by RowlandP but I would just like to point out that Alma Linux was created to be "binary-compatible" with Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
That might explain why all these enterprise level settings are in the default smb.conf.

Re: ( Solved ) Recent connectivity issue with home network
Another option is to use the mdns host name of the server and not the ip address. I have a ssh server set up on a debian machine: SSH-mDNS.PNG I can use the ip address ( 192.168.1.99 ) or I can use the mDNS host name: vdeb12xfce host name with a .local attached at the end. Then it doesn't matter if ...

Re: desktop icons appear after two minutes using NAS shares
15 shares is a lot of shares. One suggestion would be not to mount them at boot but "on access". You do that by adding a systmed directive to your mount statement: x-systemd.automount //192.168.8.1/software /mnt/software cifs credentials=/home/username/.smbcredentials,nobrl,iocharset=utf8,...

Re: Question about Buffalo LinkStation
By default mount.cifs will negotiate with the server to determine the best dialect of smb to use between a range of 2.1 to 3.11. Your nas can only accept versions 2.0 and 1.0 so you would have to add that to your cifs mount statements: vers=1.0 , or vers=2.0 There might be another problem however an...

Re: Question about Buffalo LinkStation
It would be good to know which dialect of SMB the NAS is using .. or can use.
You can find that out from your Mint box:
Install nmap:
Then run this command - if the ip address of the NAS is 192.168.1.100:
