The issue with passwords is my programs (batch)
You can save the password as part of the windows credential, so it would be automatically applied whenever you access the NAS using SMB from that PC.
That should resolve your batch program issue.
FWIW, I have an application server (windows 10) that does this, and there are several batch scripts that I run regularly from that server.
I don't like to write password inside code...
I don't undersand why Hosts doesn't work..
Do you have any idea ?

Me either, and I didn't propose that you do that. I suggested adding a user credential in the windows credential manager. Your code will then work without modification.

See the note on page 76 of the user documentation (http://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/READYNAS-100/READYNAS_OS_6_SM_EN.pdf ): Note: For SMB, the access rights for each host depend on the access rights of the user. So you still need to configure user-level access.
Another way of saying this: If your IP address isn't in HOSTS then you will be denied access. But putting your IP address into HOSTS doesn't mean you will be granted access.
Are you depending on anonymous access now? If so, is that something you changed when you added the IP into HOSTS?
