ReadyNas 214 user account can access a share but the account not recognized when changeing password
I have a ReadyNAS 214 with a share created. I have user accounts that have access to this share. The accounts can all login and access the share. However, when a user goes to https://<nas ip>/passwor...
I am not trying to recover the Admin password. I have several users on the NAS and would like for them to be able to change their own passwords. I have set them up with a default password and they can access the NAS just fine. However, when they try to change their password the NAS does not recognize the ID. I found the thread that talked about useing this location to change passwords: https://<nas ip>/password_recovery/my_password.html. That is where the ID is not recognized. If this is only for the admin id, how does a user manage their password on the NAS.
It works on my systems running OS6.7.5 and 6.8.0. This is the KB article about it, BTW: How-do-I-change-the-password-of-my-ReadyNAS-user-account-on-my-ReadyNAS-OS-6-storage-system. Your users do understand that their user name is case sensitive and this is only for local users, not ReadyCloud ones, correct? Do you have HTTPS enabled under System/Settings?
