Can't connect to ReadyNAS Duo

[synaps_o_dan]

Hi all,

I am currently trying to get ReadyNAS Photos working. I have successfully createad a ReadyNAS account, recevied & confirmed the confirmation mail from RedyNAS and installed the RedayNAS Photos desktop software. However, if I try to connect to my ReadyNAS Duo with the desktop software, I get an error message saying that I can't connect to ReadyNAS Photos under xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx with xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx being the IP of my NAS. I have tried different authentifications with or without user names and passwords (admin included), all with the result that I can't connect. The error message reads as follows (in German):

share=[hostname=192.168.0.101, share=Dekoh$, username=admin], exit code=[2], error=[Systemfehler 1219 aufgetreten. Mehrfache Verbindungen zu einem Server oder einer freigegebenen Ressource von demselben Benutzer unter Verwendung mehrerer Benutzernamen sind nicht zul„ssig. Trennen Sie alle fr�heren Verbindungen zu dem Server bzw. der freigegebenen Ressource, und versuchen Sie es erneut. ]

It roughly says that multiple connections to a server or shared ressources from the same user under different user names are not allowed and that I should terminate all other connections and retry.

I have no idea what to do in this situation. Any help would be appreciated, as I apparently have hit a dead end here.

Thanks in advance,
Daniel

Can you download and run RAIDar and see if it can discover your ReadyNAS ?

Are you able to connect to your ReadyNAS using the Frontview ?

Hi Minerva,

tanks for your quick reply.
Apart from the issue with ReadyNAS Photos, the Duo is working fine. Raidar did find it without problems. Currently I have two shares connected to my Windows PC as two network drives. MLDonkey is running. The only thing that is giving me a headache is ReadyNAS Photos. Since this is a feature I *definitely* want to use, I would be really grateful for any help.

Can you try connecting to ReadyNAS Duo after unmapping the network drives.

Hi Minerva,

I have disconnected the two shares and restartet both my PC and the ReadyNAS Duo. As soon as the systems were up again, I run the ReadyNAS Photos desktop application, but I got the same error message again (1219).

Thanks again,
Daniel

Make sure all your network drives are disconnected before connecting to the ReadyNAS Duo.Can confirm the same by executing the command 'net use'.

Hi Minerva,

thanks for the tip. Here's what I've done.
1. I disconnected all shares from Windows. Plus, I had to stop the Norton Ghost service (under my computer->services). When I had done this, net use told me that the connection to my ReadyNAS Duo was disconnected.
2. I restarted the ReadyNAS. net use told me that the connection to my ReadyNAS Duo was disconnected.
3. I started the ReadyNAS photos desktop application. When the login appeared (the first one, before you can select a NAS and connet to it), net use found a connection to the Readynas.
4. When I tried to connect to the ReadyNAS Duo, I got the same error 1219 as before.

Any idea?
Thanks in advance,
Daniel

Try out the below command on your PC where you have shared network drives and from where you are accessing ReadyNASPhotos application.

net use * /delete

This command will disconnect all connections to network shares that were listed when you typed "net use".

Can try connecting to ReadyNASDuo.

Hello Minerva,

thanks to your tips, I finally got ReadyNAS Photos working. During the login process I constantly monitored my network connections with "net use". At some time during the login, a connection to the ReadyNAS would appear, and I deleted it with "net use * /del". This worked perfectly.

Thanks a lot,
Daniel
