Hi all,
Been a very long time ASUS/Merlin user on an RT-AC86U router. Its been working flawlessly for years and years and I always keep it up to date regarding merlin firmware. I'm currently on .12_4
For a few weeks now I can no longer mount the external USB 3 attached hdd that I use as a backup repository. The failure messages appear as no permissions to username/password errors, etc. I've tried resetting, deleting users, rebuilding users, etc to no avail.
My primary desktop is a Linux Mint 21.2 and I've defined a cifs mount in my fstab file.
While I'm quite experienced in networking I seem to have tried all that I can think of so I was hoping someone who is familiar with CIFS access can describe their mount efforts and what they would do to diagnose this error.
I guess my brain is just getting tired. Thanks to anyone who can provide this assistance.
