I have just bought a router ZTE F680 that is using a Samba server 1.9. I want to share a usb hard disk using the SMB protocol.



In the router, the disk is correct attached and the path is:



/mnt/usb3_1_1


I have disabled the FTP server. And I have enabled the Samba service. No user and password at all. There are no so much options in the router.



From my Windows 10 the router is found in the "Network". I can access to the folder correctly and see all the files. The address is something like



//ROUTER/samba/usb3_1_1


That confirms that the configuration of the router must be correct.



When I start my Ubuntu 16.04LTS machine, I try to mount the samba folder using the terminal:



sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.1.254/samba/usb3_1_1 /mnt/smb/


And a password is asked:



Password for root@//192.168.1.254/samba/usb3_1_1:


Any password I put (empty, random, router user, ...), always has the same result. The folder is mounted but, the folder listened are not correct:



$ a b B B B C G L P S S


And if I try to access with cd to any of this folder, an error that the folder does not exists is shown. Of course if I change the URL to an invalid one, nothing is mounted.



First of all, in Windows no password is needed, and everything is correct. Also in my ubuntu machine I can connect to the windows machine shared folders. Therefore does not seems that any application is missing in my Ubuntu machine. Previously, in my old router (TP-Link) also I have similar configuration and it works fine. But now, not Ubuntu or Raspberry machine can access to it.



Is a router software issue or is a Ubuntu/Raspberry configuration issue?



I assume that the Samba server 1.9 on the router is more or less standard (but old). How can I connect correctly using a modern SMB client?



And, why I can list some invalid folders in my mounted folder? Is only a codification problem?



-- EDIT --



At least con -o guest when mounting the unit, no password is asked.

  • The router has a Samba 1.9.16p10 server. Probably seems that is a codification problem.

  • Samba 1.9 is more than 20 years old. Windows no longer supports SMB servers that old, and I would be surprised if you didn't run into bugs in that version of Samba when used with newer clients.
