Hi Kenzokabuto,

that sounds like a potential bug ... what version of ConnectMeNow are you using?

Furthermore: what does you share definition look like (including the advanced options) and what does the mount output in Terminal look like (eg. run "mount" in Terminal) - jut so we can compare? (feel free to mask username/password if visible)

I'm not so skilled in command line command, what should I do? 😳 

still, I noticed that trying rebooting has changed the behaviour (after many tries even finder hanged with samba)

after reboot I identified this error in log

│ - LOGIN: Username and Password known - User login with hidden window
│ URL: smb://192.168.1.2/Backup
│ Mount directory: macOS will mount against a mount directory in "/Volumes"
│ - Error - Mount failed (Error code: 412)

No problem 😊 

So first you open the "Terminal" application. You can find it under Applications -> Utilities on your Mac.
There you type commmand "mount" (without the quotes) and it will give you an output of mounted disks and shares.

Something like this (sorry for not having a network example, since I have not network access as I'm traveling):

~ $ mount 
/dev/disk3s3s1 on / (apfs, sealed, local, read-only, journaled)
devfs on /dev (devfs, local, nobrowse)
/dev/disk3s6 on /System/Volumes/VM (apfs, local, noexec, journaled, noatime, nobrowse)
/dev/disk3s4 on /System/Volumes/Preboot (apfs, local, journaled, nobrowse)
/dev/disk3s2 on /System/Volumes/Update (apfs, local, journaled, nobrowse)
/dev/disk2s2 on /System/Volumes/xarts (apfs, local, noexec, journaled, noatime, nobrowse)
/dev/disk2s1 on /System/Volumes/iSCPreboot (apfs, local, journaled, nobrowse)
/dev/disk2s3 on /System/Volumes/Hardware (apfs, local, journaled, nobrowse)
/dev/disk3s1 on /System/Volumes/Data (apfs, local, journaled, nobrowse, protect)
map auto_home on /System/Volumes/Data/home (autofs, automounted, nobrowse)
/dev/disk1s1 on /System/Volumes/Update/SFR/mnt1 (apfs, local, journaled, nobrowse)
/dev/disk3s3 on /System/Volumes/Update/mnt1 (apfs, sealed, local, journaled, nobrowse)
~ $

You can select the text and paste it into a message. To get it nicely formatted I use the "<>" button here in the forum, which will open a window in which you can paste it.

Note: if you recognize a username or password in the text, then feel free to replace them with other text (eg. "username" and "password"). You should not see passwords, but it may happen.

The error message could mean that username and/or password are a problem.
I've seen this with typos in username/password, but more often when usernames or passwords use certain special characters.

using connectmenow v4.0.10

the target folders are on windows 10 and on mycloud home (a piece of junk wd pretend being a nas)

I set ad hoc a typo proof username/pwd

still got same result

BTW this is what you asked

... mycloud home (a piece of junk wd pretend being a nas)

🤣 I know what you mean haha ... but hey, if it works, it'll do for now right? 😊 

For the record, I used to have one from WD ... way back when.

Back to your question;

Did you enter the server as 192.168.1.2 or 192.168.1.13?

The reason I'm asking:
CMN will search in the mount info for a server, username and path.
So if one of these is off or spelled differently then it cannot identify it correctly.

@hans 

.2 is the windows server 

tks, it helped me understanding, for some odd reason they got mounted only if declared with name (not with ip address)

still I cannot unmount anything

this is cmn log

That is odd indeed haha ... I avoid using names since in my experience IP addresses are much more reliable.
Thanks for the log, at first glance I do not see anything odd - except where it says

22:46:11 │ - Mount Status Updated: Counted 1 active share(s)
22:46:11 │ - Matched 0 Network shares. (1 unknown)

Obviously 1 unknown is not correct, and it does mean that CMN was not able to match the "mount" information with your server definition. Which explains why you cannot unmount, but it's not getting us any further ...

You could peek in the "tools" options that can be found in the log window.
For example some of the functions under "Tools" (button) -> "List Share details" (eg. "Selected Share in Preferences Window") and "Terminal Tools" (eg. "Show mount output").

We would need to find out the differences between the share definition details and the output from mount.
As mentioned before: server address, server path, mount path (/Volumes or any other path), username and password (typically the latter shouldn't show).
