Hi prcist,
Unjoin and rejoin the NAS in your AD. Ensure that AD details entered are accurate. In setting up share permissions, kindly check the articles below.
Setting up Active Directory folder permissions on ReadyNAS OS 6
Setting up Active Directory folder permissions on RAIDiator 4.2
Hope this helps!
Kind regards,

Thanks for the reply Brian. I should have been more specific. My ReadyNAS has been succesfully joined to my domain. It picks up on users and groups in AD. I was simply in the middle of creating brand new security groups in AD and wondered how long it would take for those new groups to be seen and recognized by the ReadyNAS. Now, several days later the security groups I created in AD are now recognized by the ReadyNAS. I just don't know the timeframe in which to expect to see them in the ReadyNAS gui once I create them in AD.

Hi prcist,
Kindly try the ff.
For OS 4 (Legacy) - There's a refresh button in the upper-right of the User/Group listing pages.
For OS 5 and OS 6 (ARM and Intel X86) - There's a button called "Refresh ADS accounts".
Hope this helps!
Kind regards,
