#346338 Change CIFS Mount Point from root to media/

Posted by Jonathan524 on 26 April 2013 - 15:20

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.
