And unless you are root (or you are sure that your user account has read/write/execute permissions on that folder) you might want to use "sudo mount" rather than just "mount" to make sure you don't get permission denied due to filesystem permissions on the local mount point.<br /><br />I can't recall whether non-root users can actually mount anything without special admin privileges so certainly try being root or using sudo.<br /><br />I'm not sure that you've got the options list correct. I would try sticking more closely to the examples. For one thing you haven't got '-o' before the password= option. I also don't see why you should need to override the UID option - that could cause a permission denied by itself unless you're root.<br /><br />As a last resort you might want to lose the space in the share name (TooneTown Media) or at least use the shell to escape it i.e. //10.0.0.1/TooneTown\ Media in case the %20 gets treated as a space by the shell - meaning that the number of parameters is wrong.<br /><br />Hope this helps<br /><br />Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03996533690674798085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1299820040181797045.post-1582629048022414152016-10-18T06:31:46.389+01:002016-10-18T06:31:46.389+01:00I used this:

Such SIM cards can make outgoing internet connections, but they cannot accept incoming internet connections.
