mounting an NFS share on Win 2008

[atakacs]

Not sure it's 100% Freenas related but I can't seem to mount a FreeNAS NFS share on my Windows 2008 box:

Code:

C:\Windows\system32>showmount -e freenas
Exports list on freenas:
/mnt/Storage/Data                  172.16.100.5

C:\Windows\system32>mount -o \\freenas\Data *
Network Error - 53

Type 'NET HELPMSG 53' for more information.


C:\Windows\system32>mount -o \\freenas\mnt\Storage\Data *
Network Error - 53

Type 'NET HELPMSG 53' for more information.


C:\Windows\system32>

172.16.100.5 is the IP of the windows box.

I might be missing something obvious...

A guess is that you should tell 'mount' where to mount the disk

something simular to "mount -o \\freenas\mnt\Storage\Data n:"

Hello

Thanks for your message.

I believe my syntax is correct (as * would result in the volume mounted to the first available free letter) but just to be on the safe side I just tried with a specific drive letter with same error message.
