4.1.9 shares not mounting under linux

Hi all,
AFter a slow start I had the ReadNAS nv+ working, including mount points on linux. My fstab has

192.168.2.9:/media /mnt/readynas01 nfs defaults 0 0

As I said, that was working fine under 4.1.8

Now, after upgrading to 4.1.9 mounting under linux (Ubuntu) no longer works.

Has something changed?

Thanks

  • This is the sys log when attempts are made to mount a share on the ReadyNAS with a valid syntax mount command:

    [ 30.902695]
    [ 43.201413] CIFS VFS: Error connecting to socket. Aborting operation
    [ 43.201489] CIFS VFS: Error connecting to socket. Aborting operation
    [ 43.249404] CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -113
    [ 43.249409] CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -113


    Do I give up?
  • There are known problems with shares ownership rights in 4.1.9. I would suggest go to the latest official firmware with no major issues which is 4.1.8 and disable automatic update in Frontview. Or you can try beta 4.1.10.
  • I hadn't installed cifs-utils on the linux boxes. Once I did that the mounts worked fine and permissions were as expected.

    I'd also mention that compared to 4.1.8 the write speed jumed from < 8MP/s to 20MB/s. If that's the norm than 4.1.9 is madatory, surely?


    Cheers
