Linux Mount CIFS shares that contain spaces in their share name
Hi,
I'm fairly new to Linux and am having a little problem. On our network we have a NAS running the CIFS protocol. Using MOUNT, I'm able to mount some of the shares on the CIFS box, however I don't seem to be able to mount shares that contain spaces in their share name, ie /share/media works /share/test media doesn't want to mount I'm using the following command # mount -t cifs //server/test media -o username=vivek,password=myPassword /mnt/server I've tried encapsulating in quotes, but nothing seems to work.
