Issue Mounting NAS
8,505
Solution 1
Solution: sudo mount -t cifs //10.0.0.210/data -o username=xxxx,password=xxxx,rw,nounix,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0644,dir_mode=0755 /mnt/nas
Solution 2
I'd try issuing the command eliding options one by one, this way finding which one is incorrect; that would be a step forward in finding out the actual problem.

I am trying to mount a NAS on one of my servers:
htadmin@testing:~$ showmount -e 10.0.0.210 Export list for 10.0.0.210: /humanresources /Web /Usb /Recordings /Public /Network Recycle Bin 1 /Multimedia /Download /Data
Now I try to mount it:
sudo mount -o soft,intr,user_name=administrator,password=xxxxxxxx \ ,rsize=8192,wsize=8192 10.0.0.210:/Data /mnt/nas
And I am presented with the following error message:
mount.nfs: an incorrect mount option was specified
Any help here would be great. Thanks!

Bill McCracken about 11 yearsTry without the user_name and password options. I don't think that's how NFS authentication works

daniel kullmann about 11 yearsTry adding the filesystem type to the command line:
-t nfs
. nfs is not supported by the normal mount command. -
daniel kullmann about 11 yearsI don't think NFS supports giving a username/password. The access control is done on the server, which specifies which IP addresses to allow mounting an exported directory

Rodrigo Martins de Oliveira about 11 yearsDid you created
/mnt/nas
directory? all the directories you will be using you need to create before, like:sudo mkdir /mnt/nas

Christoph about 11 yearscould also be a problem with NFS version - ubuntu default is NFSv4 as far as I know, and some NASes (Synology, looking at you!) only support NFS3. I remember having problems with that, and falling back to samba as a consequence.
