I put IP address into "Server Address" form... Automatic not work, damn it!
A few thoughts though. IIRC the fileserver appliance doesn't include the client side CIFs support OOTB, so that will need to be installed to start with:
Then once that is set up, the location where you are mounting it needs to exist already. I.e. make sure the directory exists:Once you have that bit done, your commands should "just work"...If not, can you please provide the explicit error you get when you try to mount it from the commandline.
