AD Access Problems after upgrading from 6.5.1 to 6.6.0
Hello, after upgrading from firmware 6.5.1 to 6.6.0, some AD users are not able to access the shares. They get the message Access denied, even for folders with access for everyone. I have alr...

Hello DirkG,
Sorry, I missed putting "not" in there. It should be read as:
It is just share level, not for sub folder and files permissions, they should be set on the AD server already.
I guess you can try reintegrating, however, I recommend backing up the private/home shares if they have files stored.

Hello JennC,
there was no change with the user Dirk regarding the AD.
Moreover, other ReadyNAS and Windows shares, which are also using the AD and have specific user rights for Dirk (not anonymous access) were accessible by Dirk without any problem.
Also refreshing the AD from the ReadyNAS website has not solved he problem.
Moreover, there is a home share on this ReadyNAS for Dirk, but this share is not being used.
Compared to other AD based shares and due to the observations I made, it seems that there is a kind of "access denied" before even the anonymous shares are visible for Dirk.
Dirk gets "access denied, please use other credentials". Using different credentials at this time, shares are visible and can be accessed.
You also mentioned that there is a setting for anonymous access for the whole box (and not only the shares). Is there a possibility to reset this access permission?
Another idea would be to restart the AD and the ReadyNAS. Shall I try this step, or do you recommend something else?
Best regards
Dirk
