Thanks Steven,

This is the way I have set up a command line mount for testing:

  #          Buffalo file system  mount point       type options  
NOLOGIN required if guest is username

sudo mount //192.168.1.23/share /big_archive/polar cifs 
username=guest,uid=jay,file_mode=0644,vers=1.0

the system name is polar the user is me(jay)

The response is mount: bad usage

Try 'mount --help' for more information trying that seems useless.

Does anything above pop out as a problem?

Regards,

Jay
