Single domain user cannot access shares
I have two ReadyNAS 2120 devices, both of which are running Firmware v6.5.0. They have also been joined to my domain with shares and home folders available to domain users. Regarding the home folde...
Hello CRPearce,
When the NAS is integrated to a domain, the permission of the shares is being handled by the AD. All shares on ReadyNAS admin page should just to read/write Everyone. See ReadyNAS OS 6: Setting Active Directory folder permissions article.
Regards,
The problem is not with the shares. I initially thought that was the issue. However, this specific user cannot even browse to the ReadyNAS to see the shares.
For example, I can open Windows Explorer and browse to the ReadyNAS via "\\<ReadyNAS Name>". Doing so will display all of the shares, and from there I can map shares as drives, browse the subfolders, etc. All of my users have the ability to do this except for one. When browsing in this fashion, the user will be prompted for a username and a password. No matter what is entered, the result is "Access denied".
So, she can't even see a list of shares, thus preventing her from mapping specific shares as drives, which is what my logon script is attempting to do. I simply don't understand how all of my other domain users are fine except for this one account. Permissions on the domain match others who are able to access and view the shares, her username (i.e., "sxh") does not match a name of an existing share, etc.
