Help using torrent client + local network fileserver[SOLVED]

as the title says i need some help in order to make it possible for either azureus or deluge to be able to see my local network's fileserver as unfortunately neither of the both can "see" the network (arch can see if ofc and i can browse the contents)
The fileserver is specifically FreeNAS with CIFS/SAMBA,
The hard disks are in UFS format (need em from time to time when i log into windows xp -rarely)
I was thinking of a way to mount the fileserver but i cant do it
Can someone give me an example of how to be able to mount it ? as as many tries i ve made to tamper with fstab in general didn't return any results (using ntfs-3g in order to mount windows partitions/linux partitions)

Thanks in advance

You have to put something like that in your fstab.

//server/share /mountpoint smbfs userid=foo,passwd=bar,rw 0 0

Re: Help using torrent client + local network fileserver[SOLVED]

so something like this should work ?

//Server IP  or hostname/ share??  i can understand the rest but that's i would like to understand
would for example... this work

//200.150.0.0/fileserverpath to hard disks) /mountpoint blah blah work?

this is the point where i need help basically. the first part

"server" is NAS's IP, "share" is a name of a share (set on NAS).

You can use "smbclient -L //server_ip" to list available shares and "smbmount" to mount it (before adding to fstab, to make sure you got everything right).

using the freenas localhost name worked easier in the other hand after doing some smb.conf edits too
dunno how exactly i made it work but it's solved anyway
