Hi There,

I have following issue:


[root@ehlappsc02t01 fd]# df -k

[root@ehlappsc02t01 fd]# /bin/mount -t cifs //ammnffp01.ehl.pri/Departments /Q -o rw,user=svc.amgln.fpunix,password='<5&+uVX>+Nm.7j'
mount error: mount point /Q does not exist

++I cannot mount the file system. The above command creates /Q mount point and it's very strange that it says /Q doesn't exist. Please help.

Regards,
Sunil.

  • Is there an empty directory to mount this on?
  • Is the server ammnffp01.ehl.pri sharing /Departments?

My bet is on the first being the issue.

Robin,

Yes the directory Department exist. It exist at D:\Data\Departments in remote host ammnffp01.ehl.pri

So, that's one part, partly answered.

Does the directory /Q exist on the server you are trying to run this command on?

I'm guessing not, but also you need to check that server ammnffp01.ehl.pri sharing this directory.
