The situation of the networks is such as:
hp-ub(ubuntu, laptop)
|
| network 1
| network2
nova3(ubuntu, workstation) --------------------------------qnap "homes", "kazu"
|
| network 1
|
mach3(windows)
qnap serves shared directories "kazu" and "homes". "kazu" is a subdiretory of "homes" or , in a path representation, "homes"/kazu.
nova3 mounts "homes" by nfs.
mach3 connects a network-drive by setting \\ server\share as \\nova3\kazu.
The problem is how hp-ub mounts a qnap shared directory "kazu".
The solution:
First, you should install cifs-utils on hp-ub.
su -
apt install cifs-utils
Then you can use mount -t cifs or mount.cifs on hp-ub,
su -
mount -t cifs //nova3/kazu /mnt/kazu -o user=kazu,pass=xxxx.
In order to permanently mount this shared directory, write a following line in /etc/fstab on hp-ub:
//nova3/kazu /mnt/nova3 cifs user=kazu,pass=xxxx 0 2
Note that the representation of the directory in the host is different from that in the case of nfs. If nova3 has a directory /home/kazu in its physical drive,
mount -t nfs nova3:/home/kazu/ /mnt/kazu
can simply mount the directory. But in the present case, it failes. Instead, follow the usage 'mount.cifs "shared directory" mount-point', where "shared directory" should be specified in the //server/share style.
