Broken share

According the readynas frontpanel, I am sharing "media" I can browse to <readynas name>/media. However, its content is that of a different directory! Instead of seeing the content of /media, I see the content of /c/squeezeboxserver! (I used the root access plugin to find this out).

How can I see/edit how share names map to directories? I didn't see anything in frontview. I'm comfortable editing files from a root command prompt if that is helpful.

Thanks,

Mike

  • OK. This is a bug in the 4.2.19 firmware (See http://www.readynas.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=57865). I fixed it by moving to the 4.2.20T42 beta and manually editing /etc/frontview/samba/Shares.conf (I had tried editing it before, but under the 4.2.19 firmware, it is rebuilt every boot, so you need the beta firmware).

    This is a known issue and as you've discovered has been fixed in the 4.2.20 betas. The issue won't reoccur after the 4.2.20 firmware update.
