Follow the instructions below to attach your NAS storage to your Ubuntu machine.

First of all install the cifs-utils  package:

sudo apt-get install cifs-utils

Then edit your /etc/fstab  file and add an entry like the one below (adjust directory names for your situation):

//diskstation.local/ShareName /mnt/ShareName cifs auto,iocharset=utf8,uid=1000,gid=1000,credentials=/home/username/.cifspwd 0 0

Then create a new folder (as root) in the /mnt  folder with the same name as specified in the line above (for the example it would be ShareName ).

Next create a file .cifspwd  in your home directory with the following lines:

username=uname
password=pwd

That’s all; your folder on your NAS will be mounted next time you boot. To mount the new folder immediately issue the command:

sudo mount -all

Have fun!
