ReadyNas Duo Frontview backup error with Windows 7 Pro (64)
I am trying to create a backup job in order to back up files from my remote windows 7 64-bit computer. Using the "Test connection" in Frontview>Backup>Add a new backup job I get the following message: "Error connecting to //lafleur/test" (lafleur is the name of the computer). I have also tried providing the host address (//192.168.1.2/c) with a share setup on C:.
This address also does not work: Host 192.168.1.12 ; path C$.
I can't figure this one out. Can anyone help?

- ewokNETGEAR ExpertI'll file a bug for this change.
- lochnagarAspirantWas there ever a fix for this, as I'm getting the exact same problem with a unit bought last month? Any help much appreciated :-)
Thanks, Chris - IanWeggAspirantThis problem appears to have finally been fixed in 4.1.12. My Backup jobs are working for the first time since 2010.
- DeterminedAspirantThere is some more useful information on this (apparently not unique) problem on another thread http://www.readynas.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=50136&p=400446#p400446
