rn212 OS 6.6.0 BackUP job not working
I have RN212 with OS 6.6.0 and can't start a backup job from a Windows 7 PC. My NAS and PC are in the same workgroup. I have a shared folder with full access to everyone. While setting a backup job the connection is successful, but after starting the backup the job works for 2 sec. and the status is completed, but there are no files and folders in destination folder.
Here is the Log
Backup Job Name: Recover
Backup Job Type: Full
Protocol: cifs
Backup Source: [remote:cifs]///192.168.1.9/1think
Backup Destination: [Documents]/Recover
Backup Start Time: Sun Sep 30 2018 22:18:46
Backup Finish Time: Sun Sep 30 2018 22:18:48
Backup Status: Success
What I am setting wrong?
It looks to me like the issue is in on the PC, not the NAS.

Perhaps try using your Windows username/password in the backup job.
There is a difference between network permissions and file permissions. It sounds like you have the network permissions on the PC set to allow access, but perhaps the file permissions aren't.
