File service connection failure: RN21200 2-bay home NAS
My NAS box is just a month old. It has two 6TB IronWolf drives operating in RAID 0, giving me 10.9TB effective capacity. Firmware version is 6.10.1 which is the latest as of 10 minutes ago. Short...
Hi shuvam,
The SMB service on your NAS is now fixed.
The NFS service seems to be fine. It appears to be enabled currently on your NAS. It has been running for 2 days now.
Can you check if you can access your shares via SMB and NFS?
Regards,
I checked now from Kodi, running in LibreELEC on my Raspberry Pi.
From that device, whatever Kodi thinks is NFS is working. And of course, SMB is working too. So, I can say that this is a 100% fix.
Thanks a lot.
Hi shuvam and Retired_Member,
The smb.conf file does not look correct when we checked it so we restored that file to default to fix it.

JohnCM_S, thanks a lot, I very much appreciate your responsiveness. Have a nice weekend and kind regards

Where did you restore the original contents from? Is there a path where the original file is stored on my NAS, from where I can restore it if it gets corrupted again?

You are welcome. You have a nice weekend as well. :)
The ReadyNAS OS keeps a list of default config files at /etc/default/config/ (Note: Never edit any files under /etc/default/config/).
L3 did a cp -rP /etc/default/config/etc/samba/smb.conf /etc/samba/smb.conf, manually changed the workgroup since you were using a custom workgroup, and then saved and restarted samba.
