Map root to windows drive - ReadyNAS NV+ v2
Hi, I have read lots of posts and blogs and tried lot's of stuff so please don't tell me to try google... Let's work out the perfect solution instead and thereby "become" a great google search-resu...
Okay, I suppose I should use the same admin account that I use to access the dashboard instead of looking on the security tab in the dashboard. However, when I enter \\[IP]\c in explorer I do not get a login box, I just get the error message described above... If I write "only" \\[IP]\ I do get a list of all manually created shares on my NAS. It is just that the "c" cant be accessed.
I tried entering credential manager to remove all passwords related to the nas (run: control keymgr.dll) but this did not help getting login screen.
I removed all accounts on the NAS, and also the one matching my windows login to see if I got the login screen... I did get it for all the shares BUT the "c" share which still gave me the error message. I tried accessing the other shares with the "admin" account but I did not succeed with this, the login screen kept popping up every time i tried. The loginscreen insisted on using my home PC name as a domain, like MYCOMPUTER\admin or similar, at least it looked that way in the login box (in Win8).
But it is strange that the admin account get login prompt for the other shares, but not for the C share also...
So, how to procees now? Could the c share or the built in admin account have been disabled?
