Samba error with Fritz.Nas: CIFS stale file handle

Installation
1

I would like to report that whilst using samba connection in some add ons I would keep getting a CIFS error of Stale File Handle in the Transmission add-on.

Turns out the Fritz.Box is not doing file serving properly and can’t be used without tweaking the mount command.

This was also filling up my drive rapidly with logs that weren’t cleared on reboot and that were quite a treasure hunt to find.

I ended up moving my drive to Home Assistant and using the Samba NAS add-on instead.

(Posting here because I wished somebody had before me)

Thank you, this helped me.

There is also:

which helped with some additional knowledge although I dont see the option in the mount I did with HA, its working from the addons.
