    I've changed the hostname and I can access now, although my hostname (nas_home) had been working a few years before.. :S

     

    Many thanks

    I'm not doubting that it worked before, but it is still illegal - it looks like it eventually caught up to you.

    Going forward, the admin GUI will prevent you from setting a bad hostname.  As OS compontents (in both Windows 10 and ReadyNASOS) continue to get updated over time, it's likely more things will cease to work with invalid hostnames.
