[Help] TOS7 cannot mount remote SMB folders.

Post by Varlei »

I connect to my server without problems using my Synology DSM 7.3.2 and Asustor ADM 5.1.2, but with Terramaster TOS7 I get the message "The source path is not available." They are on the same network and I'm using exactly the same credentials.

Any ideas?

I’m quite surprised that this feature hasn’t been improved in the new version. It was a bit of a mess with TOS 6 and it seems to still be a bit of a mess with TOS 7 :-(

In the meantime, I also use the Unix command ‘mount’ to do it myself.

We have internally tested multiple machines with different system versions, and all can mount normally. The issue you're encountering may be related to the network environment or SMB settings. If convenient, you can find online customer service through the entry in the lower right corner of the official website to schedule a remote session, where our engineers can conduct troubleshooting.

If the NAS can be mounted normally in the terminal, this indicates that the NAS connection is working properly, and there may be some issues on the front end. If it's convenient for you, you can schedule an engineer for remote troubleshooting.

Did you get this sorted?
I'm curious because the subject of the thread was "TOS7 ....." yet the screen shots posted show the TOS6 interface? Or, was that updated later in TOS7 Beta release?

And I do have TOS 6 indeed.
But I suppose the problem remains with TOS 7. This is why I want to contact the hotline
