Rebuilt Win 7 PC cannot connect to ReadyNAS Duo
Hi, I have a ReadyNAS Duo V1 and it's been working fine for well over a year. I have a number of Windows Vista, 7 and 8 PC's on my network and they can connect to the shares on the ReadyNas without...

Also, have you tried turning your internet security/antivirus software off?
BTW, my ReadyNAS also only appear on "storage", so that in itself it not the problem.
I've tried connecting with the firewall disabled, but not sure how to disable MSE without uninstalling it.
I also tried connecting via net use to just the NAS and the \media folder with 'admin' and password combo which I can use to log into the frontview web page, but got the same System Error 58.
If I edit the URL to the frontview pages by deleting the '/admin' I get the 'My Shares' page with the message "No shares currently available" even though the 'media' share has default access set to read only.
Could it be something to do with the way the shares are setup, a while ago I couldn't delete files with one of my PC's and spent quite a while looking though readynas tutorials on how to enable some users write access and others read-only access to the 'media' folder. All the other PC's were built before I made those changes.
Current CIFS settings are:
Default Access: Read Only
Share Access Restrictions -> write enabled users: 2 users listed.
Advanced CIFS Permissions ->Automatically set permissions on new files and folders (ticked).
Advanced CIFS Permissions ->When new files are created over CIFS... Group rights: read/ write, Everyone rights: Read-only.
Advanced CIFS Permissions ->When new folders are created over CIFS... Group rightd: read/ write, Everyone rights: Read-only.
Oppertunistic Locking-> Enable oplocks for this share (ticked).
Current Advanced Options are:
Advanced Share Permission -> Share folder owner: admin
Advanced Share Permission -> Share folder group: nogroup
Advanced Share Permission -> Share folder owner rights: Read/ write (greyed out)
Advanced Share Permission -> Share folder group rights: Read/ write
Advanced Share Permission -> Share folder everyone rights: Read/ write
Advanced Share Permission -> Grant rename and delete privileges to non-owner of files (ticked)
