== Sharing your Store you HDA Shares shares on a NAS ==I like to keep my mass storage on a NAS, but I want the stock shares on my HDA to work as designed. the following is my method for mounting my NAS share as my "/var/hda/files" directory. I chose that spot for convenience but you can put it anywhere you would like. I used the "Connecting to a Server by Mounting your HDA"as a template so the credit has to go to it's author. Here we go...  * We need to create a credential file to mount on startup: sudo nano /root/.smbcredentials o Add the following lines: (You must change hda_username and hda_password to the correct user name and password for the hda to connect to):  username=hda_username password=hda_password  * Save the file by hitting ctrl+x, type "y" to save the buffer, and <enter> to exit. * Now, change the permissions of the file so only root can read and edit it:  sudo chmod 700 /root/.smbcredentials  * Let's back up our fstab: sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab_old o If needed you may return to the original this way: sudo mv /etc/fstab_old /etc/fstab * Now we edit fstab:  sudo nano /etc/fstab  * Add this line at the end:  //hda/music /media/music cifs credentials=/root/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0   * Finally, test your settings to make sure they work:  sudo mount -a
