can't access SMB folders since 6.8.0 (using 6.8.1 now)

Hi everyone,

 

I've been pulling my hair since this update, SMB is now only working if i check "allow anonymous access".

For my NeoTV550 i've reverted using NFS (and even then i can't specify any particular allowed host, must check "anyhost" for it to work.

For my Sonos speaker, and my computers using SMB, i must check "anonymous"...as soon as i try to restrict access using accounts, access is denied, even after permissions reset.

 

Any idea would be great =)

 

Thanks alot

    Hello Belarkan,

     
    It does appear that after upgrading the firmware of the NAS the permission setting is not working. Please try to download the logs of the NAS and provide us a copy, you may use file sharing website like wiki send and just private message (PM) me the download link (do not post the download link on your response). You may perform an OS re-install and check that would make a difference for a guide please go here.
