Can anyone help?
I have a USB connected hard drive on my Smart Hub 2 which I have mapped and accessed successfully with Windows 7&11.
However, I'm having no success mapping the same USB hard drive using Linux. In part, this is due to not knowing or having the Smart Hub root password or user name - using the provided Admin password for the Hub Manager alone does not to work. My previous 3rd party router worked successfully with all OS's.
I am using cif-utils software to make the connection but the response is always refused for the lack of user name/passwd. Any advice to overcome this hurdle would be most welcome - thanks.
Solved! Go to Solution.
You don't need a username and password to access the USB port on the Smart Hub.
The port is only enabled for SMB1
Just connected fine from my Raspberry Pi using anonymous login via smb://192.168.1.254/usb1
Thank you for your confirmation that an anonymous connection can be made, as is the case thru' Windows, but that continues to defeat me even trying your solution from my Pi. Perhaps you would explain how I should complete the type (I've assumed FTP to date), host & path boxes on the "Connect to Server" utility to achieve success?
Clearly I am missing a trick as I keep getting asked for a password. Do I first have to mount the target in fstab, perhaps?
Thanks
Just navigated to it via file manager
Must be finger trouble here - solved. Many thanks.
