Good day Everyone --
I'm attempting to use the Disk Image backup mechanism from the IDE.
I am able to mount the Windows shared folder via running this from the shell:
mount -t cifs -o username=username,password='password' //192.168.127.2/PPMAC_Shared_Folder /media/shared
The password does have some special symbols, so I wrapped it with single quotes.
I am able to access /media/shared no problem.
However, if I attempt to use IDE in the Backup (Disk Image) menu, I receive an error unable to mount (Using the same credentials as command line)
---------------------------
Error
---------------------------
Unable to mount host computer's shared drive: \\192.168.127.2/PPMAC_Shared_Folder on /media/shared. Backup process aborted
I Do notice the double backslash vs double frontslash is one of the possible issues.
When I click the proceed button, does the above CLI command get executed?
If I do not use the single quotes around my password, i get an error from CLI. I suspect this has something to do with it. Are you wrapping the user's password when building the command for linux cli?
Thanks in Advance,
Scott
