smb.conf keeps getting corrupted
Recently my RN202 crashed. Only option to get it running again was to powercycle it. Since then I have troubles with running SMB. When I try to enable it in Frontview, it simply does not. I used ssh ...
You can check what it currently looks like by doing e.g.
# sqlite3 -column -header /var/readynasd/db.sq3 'SELECT * from service_cifs'
If that field is set incorrectly this ought to do the trick:
# sqlite3 /var/readynasd/db.sq3 'UPDATE service_cifs SET security="user"'
Normally it's the config file that needs fixing not the database. We use the database to automatically repair broken configuration.
It's certainly something broken in the database: /var/readynasd/db.sq3, in table service_cifs maybe? I have only one entry, second field value is 'user'. What do you have?
