NAS System Information
Is there and where do you get the kind of information you got of the ReadyNas NV
The type of information I am talking about is:-
Some things on the old version I can not find or are not there ?
Also some additional information in place would be nice Ie. on the system volume page it does not tell you the total volume size. & yes you can get this from the overview page but it is volume information !!!
Is the USB Drive not a Volume so way is this not in there.??
Why Is the used and total drive size of a USB drive not in the Shares / Shares Page ?? Or inforation about it on the system Performance Page ??
I have had this unit a couple of day but I am not sure I am liking the reworking of the user interface. Looks nice, but where is all the funtionally you got on the old version. And more to the point surely you should be more not else ??

- PhpSysInfo Will show you a few things you're after. Install from App section of Frontview.
Workgroup = Frontview > Accounts > Authentication.
IP Addy = Frontview > Network > Links > Eth0 or Eth1. - mh5blAspirantThank yes found the place to change the workgroup.
On the IP will the apply button renew the IP Address ??
Where is the Lease information Ie date Obtained, date expires, The DHCP IP server address, Duration connected.
All this information you can get thought the shell but so easily could and should be detailed !!! - mh5blAspirantTried to change the workgroup name but I am getting a error "security setting failed to apply" the code is blank.
any ideas ?? - StephenBGuru - Experienced Useryou created the group first?
