Can not map NAS as network drive on Windows 10 unless I login with admin account
Hello all, I cannot seem to map my NAS as a network drive unless I use the admin login, any other login is deemed incorrect or non-existent. I tried changing the share permissions from anony...
Unfortunately, when I enter those commands, the system error 53 prevents me from proceeding, I have no idea for what reason :/
Hi StephenB,
I tried once more and I got the error once more as per the screenshot below
The IP, user and password i entered are correct
UPDATE:
I tried with the admin user and it worked, for some reason it wont work with the other users :(
Is anonymous access enabled for the shares? If not, perhaps enable it and see if that changes the outcome.
yes, anonymous access is enabled for the share and yet i still get error 53 :@. I turned it off and on again just to see if it would make a difference but it didnt.
Are you already connected to another share as admin? Windows will not let you use two sets of credentials for the same device. A work-around to that is that it does not realize that the IP address and matching host name are the same, but that limits you to two sets of credentials.
