Hi Erik,
If you use, windows file sharing (SMB) it doesn't currently work because the Linux CIFS client won't mount subdirectories in windows shares, it will only mount the root of the share. We will probably eventually implement a work around but don't have a solution publicly available yet. NFS doesn't have the same issue, but NFS isn't convenient for everyone. So, realistically, you may be stuck creating a new share.

Hi,

I have the same problem with the drupal jumpbox installation... Is there a reason why I can not use a nested folder? Any suggestion on how to solve this?

Thx.

Erik

Solved - the issue is that the 'path' does not support nested folders - e.g. I was using /Backup/TracSubversion as the path. Using /Backup works. Thanks all.

Hi,

I've got the current Trac/Subversion JumpBox beta running, and have registered etc.

I'm attempting to schedule backups to an SMB share, but getting the error: Unable to connect mount point.

Based on the tutorial, I'm using the IP address of the machine as the host, and the plain ol' username "backup".

I can see the folder in Nautilus, i.e. at smb://dellgx150/Backup/TracSubversion, after entering the username and the name of the machine as the domain. I can't really understand how the JumpBox could connect without the domain information, since Simple File Sharing is off as recommended...?

Output from mount, and fstab, below.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Regards,
Nick
