Thread: Can't mount NTFS network share in Ubuntu 11.10...

i'm having problems mounting shared ntfs network directory (on qnap nas) new ubuntu 11.10 machine (3.0.0-12-server kernel).
have 10.04 machine running on same network, , can mount network drive fine there.
10.04 machine has following packages & libraries installed enable ntfs read/write support:

code:

ntfs-config ntfs-3g libntfs10

i can mount network directory using following command:

code:

sudo mount -t nfs 192.168.1.100:/qmultimedia /mnt/qnap

the 11.10 machine has same packages installed:

code:

ntfs-config ntfs-3g libntfs10

i have enabled ntfs-config creating policy directory:

code:

sudo mkdir -p /etc/hal/fdi/policy

i have run nfts-config tool:

code:

sudo ntfs-config

... , enabled ntfs write support external devices.

when try mount ntfs partition (which works fine on 10.04), following error:

code:

mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on 192.168.1.100:/qmultimedia,        missing codepage or helper program, or other error        (for several filesystems (e.g. nfs, cifs) might        need /sbin/mount.<type> helper program)        in cases useful info found in syslog - try        dmesg | tail  or so

so, still don't have ntfs support. missing other package or library make work on 11.10?
in advance!

*looks sheepish*
problem solved - issue wasn't ntfs.
it's network drive, need nfs support... doh.
fixed installing nfs-common:

code:

sudo apt-get install nfs-common
