[gentoo-user] mounting windows 10 partition on linux

[t***@sys-concept.com]

I'm trying to mount windows 10 shared folder on Gentoo home folder but
I'm getting an error from "smbclinet"

smbclient –L //10.0.0.119 –U OP2
–L: Not enough '\' characters in service

I've tried:
mbclient –L //10.0.0.119 –U OP2
smbclient –L //10.0.0.119/backup –U OP2
smbclient –L \\\\10.0.0.119\\backup –U OP2

smbclient does not mount. It just connects a CLI client to the server
(see the manpage). The -L argument is for the NetBIOS name alone, not
the UNC. This should work:

smbclient -U OP2 //10.0.0.119/

Since you know the IP, you can skip NetBIOS lookup:

smbclient -I 10.0.0.119 -U OP2 //10.0.0.119/

Assuming you have CIFS built into your kernel, you can use mount as root:

mount -t cifs -o user=OP2 //10.0.0.119 /mount-point

mount -t cifs -o user=OP2 //10.0.0.119 /mount-point

I'm getting something, but it is not listing anyfiles/directories.

smbclient -U OP2 //10.0.0.119/
Enter OP2's password:

The "OP2" computer does not have any password setup, so hitting "enter" is not listing anything.

When I try to mount it:
mount -t cifs -o user=OP2 //10.0.0.119 /home/thelma/win10
mount: /home/joseph/win10: bad option; for several filesystems (e.g. nfs, cifs) you might need a /sbin/mount.<type> helper program.

In my kernel config I have CIFS enabled:
grep -i cifs /usr/src/linux/.config
CONFIG_CIFS=y

Do you have /sbin/mount.cifs? It's provided by cifs-utils.

Yes I was missing "cifs-utils" on this box and just install it.
But I'm still getting an error:

mount -t cifs -o user=OP2,password=op2 //10.0.0.119/backup
/home/thelma/win10
mount error(112): Host is down
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)

"backup" folder on Windows 10 has shared enabled.

That should be:
mount -t cifs -o user=OP2 //10.0.0.119 /home/thelma/win10
mount: /home/thelma/win10: bad option; for several filesystems (e.g. nfs, cifs) you might need a /sbin/mount.<type> helper program.

The above command works for my Windows 7 but not for Windows 10

Same error is for "vers=2.0
