again (from earlier in the thread)

here I guess I need to clarify that you should exchange
 * USERNAME to the username used to log on to the NAS
 * PASSWORD to the password of above user on the NAS
 * //192.168.1.88/shares to the ipaddres of the NAS +
    the name of the share
 * /mnt/share to a local directory. /mnt/nas is not to bad

if /mnt/nas does not exist - create it :
sudo mkdir /mnt/nas
sudo chown -R pi:pi /mnt/nas

to fix permissions

so what does
ls /mnt/CCTV/PiZero on the pi say ?
Most likely that is does not exists.

The create it

sudo mkdir /mnt/CCTV/PiZero
sudo chown -R pi:pi /mnt/CCTV/PiZero

if the NAS publish a file-share called CCTV and you want to reference
that - deom the pi - with /mnt/CCTV/PiZero, then /mnt/CCTV/PiZero must
exist on the pi.
