New Share Folders - What Settings For PLEX?
I've just updated my ReadyNAS Ultra 4 Plus to firmware v6.10.2, due to my newer Samsung TVs not being able to see Plex. The ReadyNAS is only used maily for serving movies, music etc around the ho...
Just tried copying some folderrand files over as a test and the Owner is still NAS-8B-C8 despite the name being changed to ReadyNAS.
I wonder if it needs a reboot?
It's been up 1 day 7 hours and I cannot remember shutting it down after changing the Host Name.
UPDATE!
That what it was after all the fannying about I've been doing today!
Thanks for the info guys!
Gotta accept my own post as a solution now, which makes me feel like a right numpty!:smileyindifferent:
I had access problems when trying to delete, rename stuff on the ReadyNAS from a different PC a few years ago and seem to remember it had something to do with the ownership of the files and folders.
I don't want to allow read/write access to all just in case any local users accidentally move, renames or deletes anything.
I know some of my questions probably seem a bit stoopid, but I'm having to relearn all this stuff after not using it for a long time and also due to the newer interface (well, new to me anyway).
I therefore am very appreciative of any and all advice.
Forgot to add my previous reply and cannot edit it, but I wanted to change the ownership to my PC's Name from the default NAS-8B-C8
I'm guessing there is a way to change the NAS name so it is reflected in the ownership name of files?
If so, how can I do that?
I'm guessing the editing of posts must is time-limited on the Netgear Community Forums?
