Hello
First sorry for my bad english
I have a RPI2 with osmc and kodi. I’m installing also a plex server on it.
I have a NAS connected to my router
in /etc/fstab i’m adding this line
//192.168.1.19/Mymovies /mnt/plex cifs username=xxxxxxxxx,password=xxxxxxxxxx,uid=1000,gid=1000,iocharset=utf8 0 0
I creat new folder with this name: plex in /mnt/
i execute this commande : sudo mount -a
Then my folder /Mymovies/ in my
NAS was mounted as /mnt/plex
but after each reboot i must execute sudo mount -a !!!
how i can permanently mount it
Use the auto option. You may also want rw (read-write), and user.
//192.168.1.19/Mymovies /mnt/plex cifs username=xxxxxxxxx,password=xxxxxxxxxx,uid=1000,gid=1000,iocharset=utf8,rw,auto,user 0 0

Add noauto,x-systemd.automount
- this will mount the nas share first time it’s accessed.
This will even work if you turn on your NAS when Pi is already running.

if you want to use noauto,x-systemd.automount
just add after your credentials:
//192.168.1.19/Mymovies /mnt/plex cifs username=xxxxxxxxx,password=xxxxxxxxxx,noauto,x-systemd.automount ,uid=1000,gid=1000,iocharset=utf8 0 0

bmillham:
//192.168.1.19/Mymovies /mnt/plex cifs username=xxxxxxxxx,password=xxxxxxxxxx,uid=1000,gid=1000,iocharset=utf8,rw,auto,user 0 0
I do it but after rebooting my rpi2 i must use the command again!
You might try sew’s suggestion and see if that works better for you. It seems like the mount is happening before the network it up.
If sew’s suggestion does not work, then you should post your log files (check the top link in the forum for info on doing that)

The sew’s suggestion works for me
Thank you for your help, bmillham and sew.

Good to know. I’ll update my sorta-positronic brain to remember sew’s suggestion

As an afterthought, if you want write access to the drive, add the rw option.

How to add it? i’m 0 in linux
Look at the fstab line I supplied, and compare it to what sew had you do. Notice the part of the fstab line that has a bunch of , separated stuff. That’s where you’d put it. Beginning, middle or end doesn’t matter.
So after utf8 just do ,rw

This one:
//192.168.1.19/Mymovies /mnt/plex cifs username=xxxxxxxxx,password=xxxxxxxxxx,noauto,x-systemd.automount,uid=1000,gid=1000,iocharset=utf8 0 0,rw
or this one?
//192.168.1.19/Mymovies /mnt/plex cifs username=xxxxxxxxx,password=xxxxxxxxxx,noauto,x-systemd.automount,uid=1000,gid=1000,iocharset=utf8,rw 0 0
the bottom one rw before the 0 0
with a space before the 0 0

OK
Thank you very much Dilligaf
@sew

//192.168.1.19/Mymovies /mnt/plex cifs username=xxxxxxxxx,password=xxxxxxxxxx,noauto,x-systemd.automount,uid=1000,gid=1000,iocharset=utf8 0 0
How would this look like if my NAS has no username. ie: //127.0.0.1/XXX /mnt/drive cifs guest 0 0
where do I add it then? I also checked this , but I am not wiser than before.
