ReadyNAS Duo V1 SMB2 Configuration Journey
Hey everyone, I have a ReadyNAS Duo V1 that I pulled out of service a year or two ago and wanted to repurpose it for use as storage on my home network. I have the usual SMB1.0 issues where I cannot...

Thanks very much for the reply.

Yeah, I know it's very old but it seems like a waste to just chuck it as it works. I am not scared to go the NFS route as I know I can get that working. It will be accessible to my Apple and Linux products, so I may just go that route instead of fumbling with SMB and wasting time because it's looking more and more like it's more than just a permissions issue or UID and PW issue. It's just odd that it's closer to accessing the shares (actually asking for a UID and PW) than it was prior... I feel like it's close to working and just need a tweak here or there. That's kind of why I was posting to see if anyone has gotten farther with that old V1 Duo and SMB2.

Yeah, I pretty much knew the answer to my question, but I thought I'd ask anyway đ

I have read that (I believe it was one of your posts) in another thread...I've been weighing that one out... I'll have to do a little more research -- I saw that some were saying the initial vulnerability was with the firmware and the SMB 1.0, but I still need to read up more on it.
I appreciate the reply! Thanks very much for the info. I'd love to hear if anyone else has gotten farther with the firmware and SMB2.
Thanks again!
