[SOLVED (kind of)] Mounting network shares (samba) from NAS

Hi all lovely people,

i have problem accessing my files on my NAS (a Synology DiskStation) from Fedora 13. All network shares on the NAS are mounted via /etc/fstab and are perfectly browsable, but when i try to open a file, any file, from say Nautilus, Fedora says it cannot find the file, even though i just double clicked it.

My best guess is that this is caused by some restriction based on missing rights/privileges, but i fail to solve it.

Affected lines in /etc/fstab reads as follows:
Code:
//192.168.3.200/maria    /mnt/maria cifs  credentials=/home/maria/.smbcredentials,dir_mode=0777,file_mode=0777  0    0
~/.smbcredentials contains the following:
Code:
username=[my username on the nas]
password=[my password on the nas]
[my username on the nas] and [my password on the nas] ofcourse real username and passwords, not as listed here.

Someone knows what might be wrong, why Fedora can list the files but still say it cannot find them when i try to open them?

Even stranger, just noticed that I can write files to the mounted shares, but I cannot read those files, even though I just created them from exactly the same place that I'm trying to read them from.

Never mind,

the Synology DiskStation had NFS support, and I managed to get it to work with NFS instead.
