Mounting

Hi everybody!

It’s the first time for years I reinstalled BeOS (Max Edition 3.1b) on my computer. Everything works fine except mounting devices from the network, neither by NFS nor CIFS. I always get a “mount: General OS error”.

Does anyone of you know how to fix that problem? That would be really great!

Thanks

Assuming you’re using the commandline to mount - you might try posting the commandline that you’re attempting to use.

Ah, yes, you are right. I’m sorry!

To mount the volume by NFS, I entered:

mount -t nfs 192.168.0.1:/data /data

whereas /data exists and is empty. One interesting thing: Somehow WON (World o’ Networking) now works, I see it as a volume and can access the other volumes on the net. But everytime I start the computer he tells me that net_server was unable to continue operation and has to be killed. It’s even stranger that the task “net_server” still exists and that accessing networks works. Is there something I don’t understand?

okay, net_server crashed because I activated telnet-support. After deactivation, it starts up normally. Mounting does still not work.
