    Mounting a Network Drive in Ubuntu

    I tried following this guide to mount an NTFS network drive at boot up. But I get the following error when I try to remount:

    Code:
    mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //192.168.0.110/E$/,
           missing codepage or other error
           In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
           dmesg | tail  or so
    Thanks for the help.

    What is the exact command you're using on the command line?

    Code:
    sudo mount -a
    I also tried a reboot, but the drive didn't mount.

    Then what is the line you have in /etc/fstab ?

    Is it something like that ?
    Code:
    //192.168.1.10/share /mnt/myshare cifs iocharset=utf8  0  0

    Code:
    //192.168.0.110/E$    /media/Hammer smbfs credentials=~/.smbcredentials,dmask=777,fmask=777  0    0
    Should it be cifs instead of smbfs?

    Edit: Tried that and it didn't help.
