[SOLVED] Mounting the Apple Time Capsule shared drive

mrbug · 2009-01-24 02:45:32

I just got a Time Capsule, but I can't seem to mount it properly. I am trying the following (based on other forums):

sudo mount.cifs //ip_address/"Time Capsule"/share_name  /mnt/capsule/

However, the /media/capsule directory changes from a directory (albeit empty) to ....nothing. I get this error when I run ls (even using sudo):

/mnt/capsule: cannot open '/mnt/capsule' (No such file or directory)

It acts like it mounts properly, but it obviously isn't working. Has anyone else had this happen?

EDIT: Got it! I needed to omit the "Time Capsule" part:

sudo mount.cifs //ip_address/share_name /mnt/capsule

Thanks for sharing, ipatch. Please note the age of the topic, however. OP posted this in 2009, and hasn't been on these forums in almost four years, so this is unlikely to be of use to them.
