No problem, I have already installed everything which is linked to my

I'd suppose the hard-drive is shared via CIFS (the Windows protocol for
sharing drivers, printers, etc), so it's accessible via SAMBA under
Linux.
Note that without D-Link's utility, it is not recognized by Microsoft
Windows. I am thus doubtful about the fact that it would be shared using CIFS.

Try smbclient -L 192.168.0.1 to see a list of shares. Then you can mount
it with mount.cifs //192.168.0.1/share_name /some/local/directory
Thanks for this trick. Unfortunately,
# smbclient 192.168.0.1 password -U Admin

192.168.0.1: Not enough '\' characters in service

# smbclient -U Admin -L 192.168.0.1
Connection to 192.168.0.1 failed (Error NT_STATUS_CONNECTION_REFUSED)

I have seen in smbclient's manpages that a password can be
given. Where do I have to put it? I tried everywhere in
# smbclient -U Admin -L 192.168.0.1
but I always read
192.168.0.1: Not enough '\' characters in service

Any idea?



There are other tools for browsing and accessing SAMBA shares too, but I
don't know them well so I can't really recommend one.
You use the fact that the share is CIFS-based, but I am not sure that
it is. I read the whole (trivial) manual, and various messages on the
Internet, but I never found any standard specification about the
sharing protocol D-Link uses. Thanks for any idea.
