Can't mount Samba share - “No such device or address”












1














I have a WiFi modem (10.1.1.1) running a Samba 1.0 file server (SHARE) and a USB flash drive connected to it. I am trying to mount the share directory to my existing local directory /mnt/smb.



Output of smbclient -L //10.1.1.1 -U admin:



Sharename       Type      Comment
--------- ---- -------
SanDisk_SandiskUltra_1_fe6f Disk
IPC$ IPC IPC Service (Home Network Gateway)
Reconnecting with SMB1 for workgroup listing.

Server Comment
--------- -------
SHARE Home Network Gateway

Workgroup Master
--------- -------
WORKGROUP SHARE


Output of sudo mount -t cifs //10.1.1.1/SHARE /mnt/smb -o username=admin,vers=1.0



Password for admin@//10.1.1.1/SHARE: 
Retrying with upper case share name
mount error(6): No such device or address
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)


I think it is strange that I get No such device or address when clearly the location of the share directory is 10.1.1.1/SHARE as confirmed by smbclient.



I am not sure what else I can do from here--any ideas?
