Edit your /etc/fstab file (vi or nano) and add the following line:

For Cifs Share without password protection

//server/share   /media/usb   cifs   guest,_netdev   0 0
 

For Password protected shares:

//192.168.1.100/share   /media/usb   cifs   username=USNERNAME,password=PASSWORD,_netdev   0 0
 

You can use hostnames or IPs. I recommend using IPs because you avoid DNS problems.

You must create the folder /media/usb in advance. After you edited your fstab file use "mount -a" or restart your box. 

As example: your usb drive is sda1, you want to mount it at /hdd/usb, your drive is formated with ext4, you would insert this line in the fstab file

/dev/sda1 /hdd/usb ext4 defaults 0 0
 

after you change the fstab file use "mount -a" to remount the drives. It should work without restart, dont forget to create the mount point you want to use

mkdir /hdd/usb
 

in my example

Use fstab to choose a mount point is the most simple approch. Connect to your box via telnet

vi /etc/fstab

and enter your usb device and the mounting point you want.

Any news on this topic? I just trippel checked it with 2 receivers. When i flash OpenPli 3.0 20121010 with Kernel. 3.4.3 AC3 Dolby Digital over S/PDIF works like a charm. When i flash a recent OpenPli image AC3 Dolby Digital over S/PDIF is broken. Definetly a Software issue as both of my ET4000 have the exact same bevavior.

I used vanilla OpenPli without any addons which dont come out of the box.
