Proxmox VE Alpine-Docker LXC - unable to mount SMB

[Vendo232]

I have deployed Proxmox VE Alpine-Docker LXC and via console trying to mount SMB drive using this command

Proxmox VE Alpine-Docker LXC

mount -t cifs -o username='login',password='pass*' //192.168.1.138/Public /media/movies

and getting this msg
mount error(1): Operation not permitted Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs) and kernel log messages (dmesg) mount: permission denied (are you root?)

using command
echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/dmesg_restrict
returns
-ash: can't create /proc/sys/kernel/dmesg_restrict: Read-only file system

`alpine-docker:~# dmesg

dmesg: klogctl: Operation not permitted`

any idea what might be wrong, IP, credentials and new path is correct

Did you add cifs-utils?
apk add cifs-utils

[Vendo232]

yes

let me try restart -> did not help

[tteck]

Is the LXC privileged?

[Vendo232]

that might be it, how do I check/change ?

[tteck]

By default, Alpine-Docker is created with unprivileged access unless specifically modified during the creation process using the advanced settings.

thank you tteck for your help, will have to research how to enter advanced setting

I would like to also change RAM and Storage during install rather after

got it
