Issue connecting to CIFS share

[plexquestion]

Having some issues creating a CIFS share to use as a backup location for Proxmox. I'm relatively new to all of this, but trying to learn as much as I can. I have a SSD attached to my router which I use as a NAS/Plex storage, and I want to use the Backups folder on that drive to upload Proxmox snapshots to. So the remote location is //192.168.1.1/Backups and the location in Proxmox I want to use is /mnt/pve/serverbackup.

in /etc/pve/storage.cfg I added

cifs: ServerBackup  
        path /mnt/pve/serverbackup
        server 192.168.1.1
        share Backups
        content backup
        options noserverino,echo_interval=30
        password [password]
        smbversion 3
        subdir /data
        username PVEbackup

and using pvesm cifsscan 192.168.1.1 --username PVEbackup --password I see the Backups directory fine. But when I check the storage in the server view it says

connection check for storage 'ServerBackup' failed - tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED (500)

Any help would be appreciated. dmesg just shows:

[3607996.122357] CIFS: Attempting to mount \\192.168.1.1\Backups
[3607996.125442] CIFS: VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -22

So not much use there.

What is your password? Does it contain any special characters? Have you tried to change the password to something simple, i.e. "foofoofoo" ?
