ReadyNAS214 Only Admin login works
I set-up user accounts for 4 users, none of them can log in to the ReadyNAS, the log-in screen just keeps coming up over and over. I restarted the ReadyNAS, no help. I can log into the admin account...

Only the admin account can log into https://nas-ip-address/admin (or https://nas-name/admin), and ordinary users do not need to.
If you have https enabled for a share, then ordinary users can access https://nas-ip-adress/sharename. But the usual way for users to access the NAS is through Windows Explorer (or Finder on a Mac). You enter \\nas-ip-address or \\nas-name in the explorer address bar (the slash direction matters, if you enter the wrong slash Windows will open your browser.
