Issues with mounting smb shares via sshd

Hello community,

I have the issue that I can’t mount a samba share in my network from the ssh shell of my WD MyCloud EX4. I access the device via ssh sshd@name.

In the terminal I enter the following: mount -t cifs -o username=user //192.168.25.1/Backup /mnt/tmp

I get the following error message:

mount: block device //192.168.25.1/Backup is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: cannot mount block device//192.168.25.1/Backup read-only

I’m not being asked for a password and the share is accessible from my Ubuntu desktop without issues (read + write). Any suggestions what I could do?

Hi TheMike, welcome to the Community. SSH access is not supported, but I’m sure some of the other users can share some advice.

That’s odd:  http://bit.ly/1rXPA53 gives instructions on how to turn on SSH. What am I missing?

It looks to me that the /Backup volume is write-protected.

I assume you have a “password=arg” string in the command as well?
