Readynas Duo (SPARC), unable to delete files in Windows
I have a Netgear Duo, and I use Win7 32-bit. When authenticated as Admin, I am unable to delete files from Windows Explorer*. The web interface to /shares doesn't have the file management page anymore...

If I connect to \\nasnamehere\shares using windows explorer, navigate to a folder, and try to delete a file or folder, it will work the first time. Subsequent attempts are fruitless and I receive the above message about Unix User\root needing to give me permission.
This is all done while authenticated as admin through the Explorer interface.
https://nasname/admin should launch frontview, which lets you reset share owners and permissions
https://nasname/shares should bring up a web interface for the shares themselves. I have occasionally had file deletions via explorer fail, and was able to delete them through this interface.
So you are saying both of these URLS fail? what version of Radiator are you using?
