ReadyNAS NV No access from only 1 PC on our network
So I have a "Head Scratcher" going on here. I have 3 NAS's (Ready NAS 314 Running 6.9.4, ReadyNAS Ultra 4 Running 4.2.31, and last but not least ReadyNAS NV Running 4.1.14). I realize that the NV ...

I realize that the NV is a Legacy model but I have a task that caused me to fire it up again. Here is my situation: I have just 1 PC that can not access the shares on the NV NAS. It can see the device as well as the shares, but when I try to access the share contents, it will not open up (only on 1 PC). I also can not see the "share" for the user that I am trying to log on with. I have verified my passwords and tried with multiple user accounts.
You will need SMB 1.0 installed on the Windows 10 system in order to access both the Ultra and the NV. But it sounds like that is already done, since you are able to access shares on the Ultra.
The fact that you can't see the home share suggests that there might be a credentials issue. Try opening CMD from the windows search box and then enter:
net use * /delete net use t: \\nv-ip-address\user /user:user user-password
Of course use the real NV IP address, and a real NAS user/password. Be care on the typing, especially slash directions and spaces.
The first command terminates any open network sessions; the second attempts to mount the user home share as drive letter t. If it works, you would then be able to access any other shares that user has permission to access via File Manager.

Sorry for such a late reply. I was finally able to get this corrected I finally created a new user on the PC in question and was able to access the share. Still not sure as to why the original user can not access it, but at this time I am not going to worry about it (BTW I did confirm the password was correct).
