Here is the problem, you put a space into a share name. Never use spaces in names, ever. Not in hostnames, file names, share names, nothing. Computers and spaces don't go together. It doesn't exactly break things... but it breaks things. Working in IT you should simply never have spaces or capitals in any kind of name, make that a habit now. It will save you countless sorrows in your career.

192.168.101.11:"/volume1/Call Recordings" /var/spool/asterisk/monitor nfs rsize=8192,wsize=8192,timeo=14,intrManually edit the /etc/fstab file to look like this. Notice that there is only one line for the NAS mount and the share name is in quotes now. White space denotes different columns in configuration files so having spaces in names means you have to escape them somehow.

I only use vi to edit files, but it is pretty tough to learn for the first time. Lots of people recommend nano for new users, but I've never used it so am not very helpful.

You are not bothering me at all, we are all here to help each other. And for a Linux newbie, you are doing great. This isn't a tough task, but it isn't a trivial one either and you are flying right through it!

Easiest thing to do is to become the asterisk user and just make a file there. So try this...
su - asterisk touch /var/spool/asterisk/monitor/mytestfile
Then you can see if it is there...
cd /var/spool/asterisk/monitor ls

Depending on the size of the file and the speed of the network and the NAS, this might take a few seconds or a bit of time. This is a full copy of the data over the network.

Probably not the first, but hopefully Google picks it up and it is easy to find in the future. Although, I didn't find any when searching either.
