samba: path to share

Tue May 05, 2015 7:26 am

Hi,

I plan to upgrade my samba server currently on a centos box. Part of the migration plan is to move the shares to a USB HDD on a Pi. The HDD is currently mounted thus on the Pi:
UUID=????????????????? /mnt/extend ext4 defaults 0 0
with the share living in /mnt/extend/zzz

However I have always mounted samba shares as cifs over on the target computer. EG.
//10.31.14.123/zzz /mnt/zzz cifs credentials=/home/tim/credfile 0 0
I suppose my question then is how to mount the HDD on the Pi and how to recognise this on the target computer!

[EDIT] It looks like my problem is privilege related so pls ignore. I am on the right track

cheers
