How to test access to your NAS share
For CIFS/SMB
- Windows-Try browsing using Windows File Explorer using the UNC path. \\oit-nas-fe##.oit.duke.edu\sharename
- Mac-Try browsing via Finder->Connect to Server-> cifs smb://oit-nas-fe##.oit.duke.edu/sharename. **NOTE** cifs has been deprecated as the NAS storage no longer support smbv1.0 which is forced when using cifs://
For NFS
- Login and run df -h and look for a mount with the nas server name in the mount point. Then cd into that mount and do a "ls" to view the content of the share.
- If autofs is controlling the mount. Login and cd to /net/oit-nas-fe##.oit.duke.edu/sharename and do a "ls" to view the content of the share
