how mount the usb drive from Linux
From a linux box, I'm trying to mount the drive I have plugged into the router.
Following the instructions here:
https://access.redhat.com/solutions/448263
I get this error:
mount error(13): Permission denied Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)
The RedHat guide says if I see that error:
Please verify the permission on the folder on you windows machine and try again mount the share folder.
Looking at the drive permissions on the router's 192.168.1.1 page,
I see Write = "All - no password" Read = "All - no password"
and no way to "verify the permission" on the folder or change anything (like, assign a password for example).
If anyone knows how to mount this drive I'd appreciate it.
I very much want to mount it rather than unplug it because Windows runs File History backup on it constantly.
Also, I tried to set permissions on it using windows but the new settings would disappear when I clicked "Apply"
When I view the permissiions in windows, nothing is checked.
Router Firmware: 1.0.2.4_9.1.86
Linux Version: CentOS 7.3
Windows Version: 10 Pro
That's all the detail I can think of.
Thanks!
Oh ...
I cross-posted to stackexchange the view from the linux side here:
I've found posts about the same thing for other netgear products like, here:
I got it figured out.

Short version:
Make sure there's an option clause that contains a security mode setting (the default is ntlm).
e.g.
-o sec=ntlm

Interresting topic!
...interesting - especially considering -o sec=ntlm is default.
