I've faced to the problem that can't solve. Hope you can help me with it.

I have a storage QNAP TS-459U, with it's own Linux, and 'massive1' folder shared, which I need to mount to my Debian server. They are connected by regular patch cord. Debian server has two network interfaces - eth0 and eth1. eth0 is for Internet, eth1 is for QNAP.

So, I'm saying this:

mount -t cifs //169.254.100.100/massive1/ /mnt/storage -o user=admin ,

where 169.254.100.100 is an IP of QNAP's interface. The result I get (after entering password):

mount error(14): Bad address Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)

Tried: mount.cifs, smbmount, with '/' at the end of the network share and without it, and many other variations of that command. And always its: mount error(14): Bad address

Funny thing is when I was in Data Center, I had connected my netbook to QNAP by the same scheme (with Fedora 16 on it), and it connected without any problems, I could read/write files on the QNAP's NAS share!

So I'm really stuck with the Debian. I can't undrestand where's the difference with Fedora, making this error. Yeah, I've used Google. Couldn't find any useful info.

Ping to the QNAP's IP is working, I can log into QNAP's Linux by ssh, telnet on 139's port is working.

This is network interface configuration I use in Debian:

IP: 169.254.100.1 Netmask: 255.255.0.0

The only diffence in connecting to Fedora and Debian is that in Fedora I've added gateway - 169.254.100.129, but ping to this IP is not working, so I think it's not necessary at all.

P.S.

Please, help me with solving this strange issue.

Thanks before.
