 Hi, 
My last email seems to have got scrabbled some how, so sorry for the double posting, but I wanted to make sure I pass on the correct information.
 I just purchased a WD My Cloud 3TB but I may have bought in haste, I don't seem to be able to get it up and working. I have Ubuntu 15.10 the instructions are for Windows and Mac. Searched to see how to over come this and got the following: #yiv5371365982 pre.yiv5371365982cjk {font-family:"Nimbus Mono L", monospace;}#yiv5371365982 p {margin-bottom:0.25cm;line-height:120%;}#yiv5371365982 code.yiv5371365982cjk {font-family:"Nimbus Mono L", monospace;}Its pretty simple if you have an idea of what you are doing.      Idon't!!Log into the MyCloud management console.       How?Assign a STATIC IP Address.       What is this?Enable NFS service in MYCloud.      How?
On ubuntu client open Terminal.    Where isthis?sudo apt-get install nfs-common

Open Nautilus and click 'connect to server'.  Shown in picture below on bottom left.  Not sure How to open this.
A dialog box will show up that says 'connect to server' like in the picture below:
Now type nfs://hostname or static ip  Close TerminalSadly my knowledge of the magic inner workings of computers is very limited, any advice would be very welcome, in layman's terms of course.  Or pop round and do it for me,  oatcakes and cheese with coffee for reward.    John.
