Re: Recreating Shares

So you had separate volumes for each hard drive?

What services did you have enabled on these shares?

Re: Recreating Shares

So you may need to edit the samba and proftpd config (under /etc/frontview if I recall correctly) as well as edit the readynasd sqlite3 database.

Re: Recreating Shares

I confirm that there is a /etc/frontview/proftpd folder for FTP config.
/etc/frontview/proftpd/Shares.conf and /etc/frontview/samba/Shares.conf are probably the files you seek.

I believe the sqlite database should be located in /var/readynasd/db.sq3

That said, I would create a support ticket and get the support to do it if this is possible, or just wait for the replacement as the manipulation on the sqlite database may void the support until a factory reset.
You may also be able to use the mount command to recreate the arborescence and point to another resource without editing the conf. Not sure it is possible though.
