Hi, my system comprises by a CXA81 integrated amp, monitor audio silver 500, and rpi4 2 GB sd card with volumio mounting, and router/modem fritz box7490. I have connected a USB 3.0 TOSHIBA HDD,
3T, on router. The problem is that although I can select the fritz media server from the choice media servers of volumio software it is not possible to mount the external disc from the choice network drivers. Below is what I have selected:
ALIAS: FRITZ.NAS
NAS IP ADDRESS: 192.168.""""
PATH: FRITZ.NAS\TOSHIBA_EXT\Fidelity (I also have entered the whole path “FRITZ.NAS\Music\Folders\TOSHIBA_EXT\Fidelity”)
FILE SHARE TYPE: nfs/cifs (I also have entered either of them)
USERNAME: empty
PASSWORD: empty
OPTIONS: empty
Have you tried to access the USB drive share (on the Fritz Box) from a computer to confirm that the share is working?
Have you checked the security on the security settings USB drive share (on the Fritz Box)?
Does it have Guest Access enabled?
Does it need a username and password combination?
When you show that you entered the whole path to the share, you don’t show the leading \\, did you leave it out when you entered the path on the Volumio?
\\FRITZ.NAS\Music\Folders\TOSHIBA_EXT\Fidelity\ is how I’d expect it to look.
I have applied what you have mentioned and I can access the USB external disc connected on the Fritz box either from a computer or from volumio media servers but I can not mount it from network drives of volumio.
When I use ssh it gives me back:
playback status, playback control, volumio service control, volumio development, volumio updater. Is it possible to mount the external disc using ssh linux commands ?
I’m not sure exactly what’re doing here. Have you typed ‘volumio’ at the command line, because that is not going to help.
ssh into your device (using ‘volumio’ as password). You are now at the command line. Type in:
smbclient -L 192.168.x.y
and copy and paste what you typed, and the devices response back here.
Yes, the external drive can be manually mounted, but it should work already automatically. I think the problem is that you do not have the correct share name/path, and that is what I am trying to determine using ‘smbclient’

I’m sorry nikolaos, but it is very difficult to see what is happening here. You are obviously not at all happy with working on the command line, and from this side at the moment we are having problems understanding exactly what is happening.
Forget the smbclient stuff for now. From your screen shot, you have not included a cifs username or password.
Edit: Also have a look here for setting up your Fritzbox’s shares properly.
When I enter in the external disc no username or password is needed to enter either using laptop or the choice media servers on volumio. What username or password do I have to enter ? The one created to enter fritz box?
