From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Using
gvfs-nfsreturns unknown file system type.I've run
mount -v yadda yaddaand gotportmap query failed: RPC: Unable to receive - Connection refusedSo you need to work out what you actually want to access and use the correct protocol/command combo.
You mentioned in your post 2 protocols SMB and NFS.
If the share is SMB/windows then use mount -t cifs ... (make life easier and ensure guest access is correct and working)
If the share is NFS then use mount -t nfs .... (beware that nfs is also version specific)
Additionally use the correct gvfs tools either gvfs-smb or gvfs-nfs.
And as always when using arch based distro's refer to wiki for full setup guides/examples
You're right, I've been mixing up nfs and smb.
Meanwhile, I've found a solution: I've added the following line to my
/etc/fstab://nas/sharedFolder /mnt/entrypoint cifs credentials=/home/yourUserNameHere/.nascreds,uid=yourUserID,gid=yourGroupID,defaults,auto 0 0then run
sudo systemctl daemon-reloadfollowed bysudo mount -av.make sure your credentials file can only read by users and groups you trust, in my case it's 750.
However, this is still a workaround. The thing is, GTK-based apps don't show network resources. That irks me.
