fstab mount on reboot not working
Hi,

I'm trying to configure Transmission to download to a drive connected to my router as a NAS.

The router is a Huawei HG533 , it has some basic samba config available you can create user accounts and set them as read only or read/write also set the root folder for the user ... There's no options for a guest account or much else.

So after much reading and playing about I have the set up half working. (users and passwords have been ****'d out for obvious reasons)

To get the drive mounted manually this works, although it does prompt for a password afterwards -
Code:
sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.1.1/router /mnt/router -o user=******

So I added this to fstab to match the above
Code:
//192.168.1.1/router /mnt/router cifs username=******,password=****** 0  0

I had a few problems getting the drive to mount under xbian, one thing I have found is that it appears that you MUST include the domain parameter in the fstab file..

I have added this to /etc/fstab

Code:
//192.168.1.1/router /mnt/router cifs username=******,password=******,domain=WORKGROUP 0 0

Then I run -
Code:
sudo mount -a

It mounts fine , but on reboot it doesn't mount at all !

Anyone know of a fix for this ?

Thanks,
Stu
