RAIDIATOR 4.1.9 Upgrade - Access Denied to some CIFS Shares!
If you have run into this issue please upgrade to 4.1.10: http://www.readynas.com/RAIDiator_4_1_10_Notes You can then use the Advanced Options tab (go to Shares > Share Listing > Sharename then click...
I've had the exact same problem after upgrading to 4.1.9. Can no longer connect over CIFS. When I check the CIFS permissions through Frontview I see the same. Under 'Advanced Options' the 'Share Folder Owner' has been set to 'nobody' and the 'Share Folder Group' has been set to 'nogroup'. When I change these settings and click apply it does not work and reverts back to 'nobody' and 'nogroup'.
I can access the system through SSH and logging in as the root user can access the folders that way. When looking at the file system all CIFS shares under the /c folder are set to 'nobody' and 'nogroup'.
CIFS shares that prior to the 4.1.9 update had read permissions to everyone are still accessible. However CIFS shares that I had locked down to a specific user account are no longer accessible at all.
Have not found a work around to access the CIFS shares other than to circumvent by logging into the system through SSH and transferring files across SFTP.
Am going to attempt a down grade to 4.1.8 like others have done and hopefully restore CIFS functionality.
* UPDATE *
As others have reported, downgrading to 4.1.8 restored my CIFS functionality. After the downgrade I had to go back into CIFS Advanced Options and reset user/group authorizations. Once in place everything is working as before.
