Ready cloud access denied
I keep getting access denied on most of my shares. My email name has read/write for everything bit still gets access denied. iPhone app and OS are both the latest. I have tried rebooting and removing ...
Hello j0sh,
What did you click when you got this error message on the last screen capture you sent? Have you tried using smb:// followed by the LAN IP address of the ReadyNAS instead?
I am just wondering why it is opening shares via LAN IP address if you were trying to access the shares through ReadyCloud desktop client.
Regards,
Accessing locally with finder is no issue.
Hello j0sh,
What permission have you set for Documents? Can you post a screenshot, please?
Regards,
Read/Write is greyed out for the cloud user on the file access tab. Wont allow checking the box.
Hello j0sh,
Set Folder Owner and Folder Group to Everyone.
Regards,
- Everyone is not an option in the drop down for Folder Owner and Folder Group
Hello j0sh,
How about put a check mark in the Everyone box from the list of names and set administrator as the Folder Owner and Folder Group?
Regards,
Don't really want Everyone to have access, but that seems to be the only way to get Readycloud working.... Seems like a great security feature.
Hello j0sh,
The "Everyone" permissions in File Access is not the same as Network Access. Network Access is for Samba, but File Access is the POSIX permissions on the file system
Typically, this is always set to "Everyone" then you use Windows to set expanded ACLS through explorer and not through the UI. So, leaving this set to Everyone does not mean you everyone will be able to access the share.Regards,

Just want to add that even without any ACL, that is the case. Network permissions and File Permissions both need to allow access. Usually its easier to leave file access wide open, and control access with network permissions alone.
Everyone checked under File Access, Folder Owner and Folder Group changed to admin. Still getting access denied when trying to access from ReadyCloud ios app.
Selecting Everyone under Network Access allows it to work... Is that what is required?
So is selecting Everyone under Network Access my only option for this to work? Anyone want to buy a ReadyNAS 314?
Hello j0sh,
When you have admin and your ReadyCloud ticked under Network Access of the share and Allow Anonymous access is not ticked, this should allow your ReadyCloud account to access that share. On my own settings I made, I've set File Access' Folder owner and Folder Group as admin with Everyone ticked.
