NAS 104 login / logout issues

I have (I believe) successfully installed the device, and I can access it from my LAN, as well as from my IOS device.
However when I connect to it via the browser (192.168.0.35), I do not get a login prompt, but am immediately presented with the Admin screens.
When I try to log out, I get a message that I need to close all browser windows in order to logout securely.
Is this a normal ?
I would expect to be asked to login each time.
I have rebooted both the NAS as well as the laptop used to manage this device, all to no avail.
If indeed there is a window somewhere that I need to close, before I can securely logout, how do I find it? :?

    It sounds like you had the browser save the password. What browser are you using?

    What firmware are you running?
  • FW = 6.2.2
    OS = Yosemite 10.10.2
    Browser = Safari

    when I connect via ReadyCloud, I am prompted for the login and password, and I am able to logout 'correctly'. I can also access the admin from within ReadyCloud, but I am not able to logout of the admin regardless whether I connect via the ReadyCloud or via the browser using 192.168.0.35

    Check for saved credentials in the keychain on your Mac.
  • The only reference to the NAS within he Keychain, relates to the password for Time Machine. I would not think this could be causing the issue?
