you're so right!

following options solves the problem:

nolock,ro,tcp

no UDP -> TCP

Hi everyone,

I try to mount a 1TB partition (ntfs formatted, the disk contains two partitions - 1TB & 2TB) that is attached to my bananpi that acts as a server. There is a usb disk attached to my player (which gets the mapped to the letter D: as well as a usb disk which gets mapped as C: and is formatted as swap 256MB)

For this I telnet into my player and use the following commands

mkdir /tmp/usbmounts/1TB

mount -t cifs -o ro,username=pi,password=bananapi,iocharset=utf8 '\\192.168.1.199\1TB' /tmp/usbmounts/1TB

cp /tmp/ramfs/labels/D: /tmp/ramfs/labels/1TB

ln -s /tmp/usbmounts/1TB /tmp/ramfs/volumes/1TB

The 1TB share shows up in the /tmp/usbmounts, /tmp/ramfs/volumes & /tmp/ramfs/labels folders, if i navigate via ftp and the gui interface. It even shows up as a samba share when i use windows 10 file manager to browse the player.

IT DOES NOT though SHOW UP in the file manager of the vrtn skin, not if the usb section nor in the mounts section. Is there a way for the schare to appear within vrtn's file manager as well in order to browse it? Would another skin work?
