qole or anyone else, would you be so kind to help me out.

I downloaded, extracted the tar and completed insmod.

If I cd to /media/mmc2/install/sbin and execute:
Code:
mount.cifs //SERVER/share /home/user/MyDocs/lan/share -o user=SERVER\user,pass=password
I get:
Code:
/bin/sh: mount.cifs: not found.
So I included the entire path to mount.cifs like this:
Code:
/media/mmc2/install/sbin/mount.cifs //SERVER/share /home/user/MyDocs/lan/share -o user=SERVER\user,pass=password
I replaced SERVER with my machine name.
I replaced all instances of share with my share name.
I replaced all instances of user with my machine username.
I created the folder /home/user/MyDocs/lan/share.
I tried all variations of caps for my SERVER, user, share.
To be on the safe side I disabled my AV, FW.

And I still get:
Code:
/bin/sh: /media/mmc2/install/sbin/mount.cifs: Permission denied
Why is that? I have the correct password, username and machine name of that I'm certain since I connect to that machine with half a dozen other devices. I can also access my media through Media Player.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

EDIT: I'm on a N810 with 5.2008.43-7.
