Hello!
Please correct me if I am wrong, but the so called Expert Setup dialog is not available in Enigma 2. The thing is, I am trying to create a share in Windows that I can mount in DM over CIFS/SMB/SAMBA or whatever... so that I can record to the shared folder without a dedicated disk drive attached to the DM.
The most guides I have read on this subject are dating back to 2005 or 2009 at best, and they all suggest that I go to Menu, Setup, Expert Setup, Communication Setup, and then pick Mounts, select CIFS, etc. etc. But I don't have this bloody Expert Setup option! Why is it missing? Is it because it is Enigma 2 and not Enigma 1? And how do I do this task without it?
Some guides suggest adding the mounts through the web interface of DM, especially when mounting to a NAS instead of a PC. But my web interface doesn't have any option for this.
I have seen one guide that suggests using telnet to send following command:
Obviously I would have to change the user and password value to my own, and the IP of course.
Can I apply this command to my DM500HD?... I think the hdd and movie folders are already created, so I wouldn't need that part. Is this command permanent? Or do I have to send this command every time I wand to mount the Windows share to DM before I start recording?
I'm not really a novice with computers, but I am really a beginner when it comes to Dreambox and Linux.
Can someone please help me sort out this last part with mounting the share on DM?...
I have already connected the DM, and I can access it over FTP and the web interface. I have also made the share, activated file sharing in Windows and everything. I just can't figure out how to mount it...
It is the original DM500HD with original Enigma2/software/firmware/whatever...
