I think this is installation of the Windows XP residing on a different partition of the same hard disk). There is nothing to click on - under "Network" there are only two icons: "T43-HI-RES" (which is the name of this T43 machine) and another "Windows Network" (which it doesn't know what to do with, doubleclicking on it opens empty window. What am I missing? Please ask me what do you need to know in order to guide me.
#Synology find nas Offline
All I want is to see drives (shares?) in Mint just like I see them mapped in Windows to be able to save files downloaded from internet to NAS so I can later wok with them offline with other machines in Windows. I know I have to set up NFS rules in NAS to make it visible, I believe I did, but no luck so far. But it is not listed under "Network" in Mint - it just shows Windows Network icon and the name of this laptop icon. Now, if I run web browser in Mint, I can log into the Synology NAS and see my drives and all the files - this is no different than in browsers on any Windows PCs.
#Synology find nas 32 bit
But freshly installed 32 bit Mint does not see NAS as a drive the way all PCs do. I've created two shared folders on NAS and I mapped them as drives in Windows - all machines see them and access them as regular disks, including XP running on the same laptop Mint is installed on, so I know physical connection work. Few other windows 7 PCs are plugged into the same router. It is wired to a Netgear router to which the Synology 212j NAS is also connected.

New to Linux, but computer savvy (not so much with networks though).Īnyway, loaded Mint 19.1 onto a ThinkPad which also has Windows XP on it. Hope someone can point me to the right key strokes.
