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: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/344427/how-can-i-mount-from-centos7-a-drive-shared-from-a-home-router-using-samba I've found posts about the same thing for other netgear products like, here: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Using-your-ReadyNAS/How-to-map-to-NAS-share-from-Linux-by-CLI/td-p/845944Solved
