SMB: Browse shares from android broken
Hi,
Devices: Ready NAS Ultra 2, OS 6.2.4
Under OS 4, I could access my shares using android Root Explorer or ES File Explorer on my local wifi network
With OS6, using Root Explorer, I noticed I can only browse folders, but I cannot list the file they contain. Files in root of the share are listed, but not downloaded. Basically, I can browse through folder structure but I cannot list any file.
ES File Explorer gives an error when accessing folders from share root: insufficient permissions
Same shares with same credentials work perfectly from windows PC
Any fix to this?

I used the "fix permissions" option and configured again all permissions for each user
This fixed all access issuesSomething must have locked up all permissions, now all is fine since a few weeks
