In kernels prior to v4.13, the default was 1.0. For kernels between v4.13 and v4.13.5 the default is 3.0.

If your CentOS machine has graphics (Gnome etc), you should be able to point your file browser at smb://ip_address/share_name> On 23 Mar 2018, at 23:22, Christian, Mark <mark.christian at intel.com> wrote: > >> On Fri, 2018-03-23 at 22:57 +0000, Tom Bishop wrote: >>> On Fri, Mar 23, 2018, 5:50 PM Eugene Poole <etpoole60 at comcast.net> wrote: >>> >>> I've got a WD My Passport Ultra 1TB (USB) plugged into my router and I >>> have 4 Windows machines, all running Windows 7, and all 4 machines can >>> see the device as drive 'Y'.

> I've got a WD My Passport Ultra 1TB (USB) plugged into my router...Have you gone to the drive's web interface on your local net? (http://[ip of drive]) It has been my experience that these network storage devices typically come pre-configured for smb/sftp/(and one other i can't remember). The drive itself has a web interface in most cases allowing you to configure users and permissions. After you configure (if needed) a network discovery on the CentOS systems should show the NSD and allow a connection as you desire. Mine does a smb connection to my Windows system while I use sftp on all my Linux systems integrating file share seamlessly through the NSD. I don't care to put smb on my Linux machines as it seems to cause more trouble than it is worth; but, that is just a personal preference. My 2 bits, Fred
