I can see from searching that this has happened to others.
My NAS did an upgrade yesterday to 6.10.5 and now when I try to access the admin page it is looping i.e. it asks for the username and password then after a few seconds goes to "Connecting to the admin page" then asks for the username and password again.
I have 3 NAS this one, a RN314, and a Pro 6 all running 6.10.5 the 314 and 6 are fine.
There is something a bit weird with the 104 - I can see a share "admin" when I look at the device in file explorer "Network" which I don't recognise. I know that HTTP maps to a folder called "admin" and wondering if there is a conection.
I have downloaded the logs.
Can anyone help?
Do do have a backup from a few days ago so a factory reset would not be the end of the world but copying the data back 3.6TB will take time...

That's a private "home" folder - you are seeing it because you are using the NAS admin credentials.
Similarly when you access https://nas-name or https://nas-ip-address (without the /admin suffix) and use the NAS admin credentials as the log in.
You can disable it by turning SMB off on the Home "share" in the web ui.
Same in my case, did several factory resets. Even on 6.10.4 it does the same only downgrade to 6.10.1 helps. I don’t understand what happens, but on 6.10.4 or 6.10.5 also the Volume Page is Blank, so i can‘t create a new Volume or View the status of the drives.
After further investigation everything works with 6.10.5 until you change the ethernet settings (I used a fixed IP address) it seems to be at this point that everything goes pear shaped.
I have gone back to 6.10.4
I also noticed that if you create shares using readycloud in 6.10.5 you cannot change the access from "everyone" when connecting via "management" i.e. connecting locally.
Anyway now running 6.10.4, new shares deleted and recreated locally and everything seems to be working as needed.
I can see from previous entries in the log that after the above line, there should be a final Authorized granted for user:, which it doesn't seem to be getting to.
I've got 6.10.4 to back to, so hopefully that fixes it for the time being.
I assume there is a way to downgrade from 6.10.5 back to 6.10.4 via SSH without losing any data, is that possible?
Yes. Installing firmware updates via SSH has been possible with every firmware release of OS6. Though of course you shouldn't rely on firmware updates or downgrades going smoothly and regularly backup your data.
