I have set up OMV on a raspberry pi and am trying to connect it to my Nvidia Shield. So under Network Storage, Manually add a network storage, where is says Enter Drive address I am using this format I found on a Shield forum...

 

\\smb;username:password@nas\Media

 

so I have put in

 

\\smb;admin:mypassword@192.168.1.2\OMV_Share

 

where OMV_Share is the name of the shared folder

 

It then asks for a domain and I am unsure where to go from here. It had WORKGROUP so I left that but that didnt work and I have exhausted my miniscule knowledge base. Would appreciate any assistance.





 I'm supposed to respect my elders, but it's getting harder and harder for me to find one now.

I have the same problem, did you find a solution?

 

 

 

I entered \\WORKGROUP;admin:mypassword@NAS\Share

After much mucking around I finally got it working.

 

Entered the IP and share separately.

 

1. \\192.168.0.*\share

 

2. Then credentials

 

3. and then the workgroup when prompted.
