I have two Seagate external drives connected to my router. One for home use and one for work use. The problem I have is in smb.conf I have this:
[Seagate_1TB]
comment = Seagate_Backup_Plus_Drive
path = /tmp/mnt/Seagate_Backup_Plus_Drive
[Seagate_4TB]
comment = Seagate_BUP_BK
path = /tmp/mnt/Seagate_Backup_Plus_Drive(1)
dos filetimes = yes
I have removed some details for privacy reasons.
The issue I have is with the path. When the router reboots, sometimes the path changes. It always has the same name but the '(1)' part switches between the two drives. When that happens I have to modify the smb.conf file and restart samba.
The question therefore is there anyway to change the path names so that they are unique and don't change between reboots.
Thanks for any help
