Mount Iomega NAS NTFS

[Iknowit101]

Ok Guys, so I am messing with VMware ESX 3 (Red Hat ver ?)First Things first, I don't even know what version of RH is running, so how do I determine this?
The big Issue for me is that I have a Iomega Drive (NTFS) and I am trying to "mount" a share onto the VMware (RH Linux ?) so I can store the Virtual Machines on the NAS.
How do I mount the share?
Does Samba needs to be running on the VMware box? is it ruunig? How do I find out if it is running?
I have tryed all the commands that I found on other post [YES, I did look before posting ] and I keep getting the same errors: Error connecting to 192.168.15.100 (Connection refused) 100 is my NAS box.
HELP!!

It wasn't me, it was someone that looks a lot like me . . . .

SAMBA isn't the solution, that needs to be running on the system that is sharing the filesystem (in this case the NAS box). What is your NAS box (operating system?)? How is the Iomega drive connected to it? Does your NAS box support NFS? If so, why not use that?

Iomega puts in their manual the fact that when formatted in ntfs there is no sharing!! they use fat 32 for sharing.
I also ran in to that problem with user rights in XP/2000
I did not manage to use these on the omega NAS because it only run shares using fat 32 and not in NTFS Format

Let me know if you have results on fixing this
