The host name cannot be found on a Linux-based BE (boot environment)

Symptom

On the Linux-based BE, the list may not be displayed when you click the “Utilities — Mount Network Folder”.
Also, even if IP is specified, a host may not be found.

Cause

This function gets the host name by the nmblookup command.
If the host name cannot be found by nmblookup, then the host name is not displayed in the list.

Run the terminal and execute the following command.
If the query does not return then this function cannot be used.

# nmblookup -A <NAS IP address>

Workaround

Click “Open Terminal” from the Console — Utilities.
Execute the mount command.

# mount -t cifs //<ip>/<Shared Folder> /mnt -o user=<User Name>,password=<Password>
