I am a relative newbie, so apologies if I'm asking a dumb question - and I have searched using GOOGLE and though the Forum too but I can't find a similar question.
I have an existing LS-CHL-V2 LinkStation (which I have SSH access to) which has around 850 GB of files stored on it. I have recently purchased a LS 220 D (no SSH access yet) and I wish to move the files from my Original LinkStation across onto my new LinkStation.
So obviously if I do this from my PC it routes all the files through my PC - not very efficient - so I thought is it possible to mount the share from one of the LinkStations onto the other and just use the UNIX cp command ?
I have looked up mounting SAMBA Shares and tried using the mount command but to no avail :
> mount -t smbfs -o username=admin,password=**** //192.168.0.215/MySharedFolder /mnt/test
I get an error that says "mounting //192.168.0.215/MySharedFolder on /mnt/test failed: No such device" - I have created the /mnt/test folder and I am logged in as root.
I know the server I am logged in as can see the other LinkStation, as I can use the command
> smbclient -L 192.168.0.215 -U admin
and the Shares are all shown, including the "MySharedFolder".
So I have two questions really :
1. Is it actaully possible to do what I'm trying to do ? Can you mount the share from one NAS onto another ?
2. How do I get SSH Access to my new LS 220 D ? I have tried ACP Commander (Ver. 1.5.6.0) and it says that it's successful, but I just can't connect using PUTTY.
Thanks in advance for any help.
