I have ReadyNAS Ultra6 with RAIDiator 4.2.15, and have a problem with using ReadyNASPhotos (got 'Invalid credentials' when trying to login).
What i did:
- install ReadyNas_Photos_2.2-x86.bin addon
- install ReadyNASPhotosInstallerWithJava.exe (v1.1) on my WinXP.
- start application, register on www.readynasphotos.com as user strange and sucessfully Sign in (for that step i have enter my http proxy server address in application options). Application (opens in Firefox 3.6.10) discover my NAS on address 172.16.10.106, but I cant use it!
- see page http://localhost/readynas/template/index.jsp?pageId=settings

Host Name: ULTRA6
IP Address: 172.16.10.106

- fill Username and Password fileds with my account, that I added to NAS, ('media' share sucesfully opens with that login/password from my WinXP 172.16.10.2) But i've got 'Invalid credentials' in case of strange/guest or even empty username.
- i try to change 'media' options to read/write to everybody or only to strange - nothing helps
- then I try using ReadyNASPhotosInstaller-2.0.RC1WithBundledJava.exe, and get same result.
- I have read forum about that promlems, find many same issue, but no answer, thet helps me or any detailed problem description.
What steps should i try to make ReadyNAS Photos works ?
