mounting NAS problems

[theesp]

Hello,

When I try to mount my NAS with the latest kernel of Mint 18.3 (1.13.0-32) I get a CIFS error: mount error(112): Host is down

The command I use to mount is: sudo mount -t cifs -o username=XYZ,password=XXXXXX,sec=ntlm,uid=1000 //NAS/Project /home/who/Project/ adding the 'vers=1.0' makes no difference. I mount the NAS through command line.

The most actual kernel that mounts the NAS without a problem is 4.10-0-42 I've experimented quite a bit, read through the forums but haven't come up with a solution so far so I would appreciate some guidance.

TIA.

I hate working with NAS devices.

Everything in your post would indicate a protocol level mismatch.

Um ... Well ... maybe the nas disabled SMB1 but it's still not able to handle the default SMB3 that cifs uses in the more resent kernels .... Instead of vers=1.0 use vers=2.0:

Code: Select all

sudo mount -t cifs -o username=XYZ,password=XXXXXX,sec=ntlm,uid=1000,vers=2.0 //NAS/Project /home/who/Project/

If that doesn’t work try vers=2.1
