ReadyNAS Ultra 4 Plus connection to Windows 10 File System
I'm a longtime user (first time poster!) of ReadyNAS. Started on the DUO and moved to the ReadyNAS Ultra 4 Plus that I have been running for years. Very minor things have happened and I have manage...
Go into "turn windows features on or off" and see if the SMB 1.0/CIFS client is enabled. If it isn't, then enable it.
There are security implications, but OS 4.2.x doesn't support the newer SMB 3.0 protocol.
Thanks StephenB
I looked into those settings and found them not checked! I checked them and restarted. Getting different messages and non can not get as far along in mapping a share. It now fails at the user/password entey saying "A specified login session does not exist. It may already have been terminated." This is at the enter network credentials when mapping the share.
Thanks again for the support
I also tried the powershell activiation again using:
Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName smb1protocol
and that came back with the same error about "The requested operation needs elevation." At line:1 char:1

Run powershell as administrator.
Also, you can try mapping a share from the windows cmd line (command prompt). Something like
net use * /delete
net use t: \\nas-ip-address\sharename /user:username password
The first command terminates any open network sessions (and will dismount any shares already mapped to drive letters) - useful for testing, but not something you'd do when mapping a second share.
BTW, a workaround is to enable NFS on the NAS, and install the Windows NFS client.
