Howto mount an external path in Readynas Pro?

Question

Hello,I am a Linux newbie, so please, be gentle!I have an application running on my Readynas Pro (Sabnzbd) that I would like to give write access to a drive on another NAS (Unraid) accessible through the same LAN at 1 Gbps and using SMB. I can also use NFS.So how can I mount that drive as a local path on the Readynas?And also how can I make that persistent but nonetheless prevent the Readynas to be stuck upon start up if that path was not available (Unraid down)?Thank you

You would have to enable SSH access to your NAS and mount the 2nd device via the commandline - you could then create a script to automate this at boot up

Can you help me a bit further? I have enabled SSH on the Unraid and checked that I can access it using SSH via Putty at port 22.I can also browse to the right folder in the Unraid which is /mnt/user0/Downloads/complete.I also have SSH running on the Readynas Pro.I used mkdir /mnt/UnraidNas on the Readynasthenmount /Novanas2/mnt/user0/Downloads/complete /mnt/UnraidNasBut it does not work.Obviously this is not the right command.Any idea?Thanks

mount -t nfs &lt;source&gt; &lt;dest&gt;Where source is of the format ip_address:/exported/pathSee http://linux.die.net/man/8/mount
