You may be onto something here. First, I thought the : was the proper divider, and when I replaced it with the / I got something interesting (see below). Then I added both, i.e., :/ and the command executed without error. It's finally mounted!! But all is not completely well, because I can't access /media/jjj/Synology. Here is what I did: sudo mount 192.168.0.101/volume1/Synology /media/jjj/Synology mount: special device 192.168.0.101/volume1/Synology does not exist sudo mount 192.168.0.101:/volume1/Synology /media/jjj/Synology <Hooray, no error messages!! <Note both : and /.> But all is not well: cd /media/jjj/Synology/ bash: cd: /media/jjj/Synology/: Permission denied ls -la d--------- 26 root root 81920 Jul 10 18:38 Synology Aargh! Now the /media/jjj/Synology folder is owned by root again, the same as happened when I mounted the share with SMB. Except this time note all the missing permissions, which didn't happen when I mounted it with SMB. I was able to change ownership to jjj with 'sudo chown,' which is also different from the SMB experience. Mounted with SMB the folder was owned by root and I was not able to take ownership, even after sudo su. On the other hand I could see all the files and act on them, it's just that they were all owned by the mysterious user 1026, thus rsync was not able to transfer ownerships from the source files. I suppose I could also change the permissions here with chmod. But the greater question is why is this even happening? In any event, thanks for the breakthrough insight! Finally a shred of progress! _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list PLUG@lists.pdxlinux.org http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
