Hi, it works for me, I mean I could mount my NAS using your instructions but I have a problem, I can read, modfy and create files but I can’t delete files. Here is my fstab, any idea?
//192.168.1.132/Peliculas /mnt/pelis cifs x-systemd.automount,noauto,rw,iocharset=utf8,username=admin,password=pepe,uid=osmc,gid=osmc,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0
I created a new topic for you as the Wiki article isn’t really the correct place to ask for help.
What type of NAS do you have? How is the drive(s) formatted? It’s possible that it’s a permissions problem on the actual filesystem on the NAS.
Of course, logs always help!
Hi Brian, thanks for your answer.
The NAS is a Wester Digital My Cloud 4Tb, here a link:
In fact I think that is a permission problem but I don´t understand excactly what is. I’m using the user “admin” in fstab that have WR access (I checked entering with the same user through Windows and deleting a file)
The filesystem is ext4:

What kind of information could I bring to you to help me understand?
Thank you
I’ve had the same issue on my WD MyCloud…
It looks like you have SSH access to the WD, right? An
ls -l
on one of the directories that you are having the issue with would be a good place to start.
BTW, instead of using SMB you will get better performance it you use NFS 
Hi Brian, I already tried to configure NFS, was my first option but I found that my WD doesn’t support it
I get this from the WD page:
on the other hand, yes I have ssh access to the WD (root access), this is the result of ls:
PPB-Storage:/shares/Peliculas# ls -las
total 87580

thanks!
I find it hard to believe that NFS isn’t supported, as the files are in /nfs … It’s supported on my WD.
Anyhow,
There’s your problem, all the files are owned by root and you are using admin.
The easy fix would be:
chown -R admin /shares/Peliculas
Hi Brian, you were right, it works !
The strange thing was that Windows was working even without changing permission, seems like windows doesn’t check permission or something like that.
Thanks Brian!
I’m glad it worked for you. As to why Windows was working, I’m not sure as it’s the NAS the enforces the privileges.
