How to start AS-204T under Ubuntu

[AlexeyVeselov]

Hello everyone,
I have very simple issue. Could anyone write the manual (or instructions) on how to start AS-204T under Ubuntu 12.04? AS-204T works well under Windows Vista. But I spent some time so that Ubuntu can be connected and be accessible under Ubuntu and was unsuccessful. Ubuntu just cannot 'see' it. What can be the problem here? Thank you very much for your help in advance!

There are many ways in Ubuntu. Here is one of the simple ways:
1. Install cifs-utils

Code: Select all

> sudo apt-get install cifs-utils

2. Mount the share

Code: Select all

mount -t cifs -o username=USERNAME,password=PASSWD //192.168.1.10/sharename /mnt/share

Using CIFS in linux for filesharing with another linux is ridiculous, but calling it a simple way, is pure blasphemy!

1. enable NFS service in Asustor Services.
2. in Access Control go to Access Rights for the given folder.
3. click on NFS Privileges
4. click Add and fill in the IP of your ubuntu (or entire network)
5. mount it

Code: Select all

mount [asustor IP]:/volumeX/sharename /mnt/share 

@orion: I see... 2 steps vs. 5, you win But c'mon, CIFS?!

You only use one command, so you win. NFS is quite native in linux (both access rights and usage). But it seems that AlexeyVeselov is not familiar with linux when compared to Windows. That's why CIFS characteristics may be more suitable for him. Cheers.

Dear Alexey,

If You choose to use Samba, some of your files won't be able to saved on your NAS. Because of the file naming rules. Issue with Linux Files via Samba

Also, if you use GNOME to mount network drive, the performance may be improved by 100% with mount command in terminal: File Transmission with Different Sharing Solution on NAS

Check Using Network File System (NFS) Service for how to mount with Nautilus or mount command.

Wish it helps!

Best regards,
