Yes, you have a mounted remote Windows file now not working. Possibilities: network breakdown, or remote host, directory, file gone, remote permissions. Go over there and check.

You have an error message but do the server work ? did it ever work before ? what is it used for ? are the users using it ? are they complaining about it ? did it work in the past or are you trying to install it ?

Maybe the way you connect to samba or get info from it is just not suitable.
Try to run a samba client and connect to your samba server and see if you get some other error message.

Or just dig into the samba ressource previously provided and check if you have somewhere some logfile/tracefile and/or see if you can generate some in order to get more clue to troubleshoot.

Thank you much. I have pointed out all the errors to the higher-ups and the main sys admin gently laughed in my face and said that its just a stale mount point and removed it...

Thank you all for your help and the documentation, as it will all help me grow as an admin...

Thanks
