Multiple NAS setup?
Confused about how this works. I have a client who has three sites and they want to use three NAS all synced to each other, so each office has fast local access to their files but when necessary can also see other offices data. Individual user permissions are not required. All users are allowed access to all data. What egnyte plan is required? Would one enterprise plan at $14.99 a month work for all three? Or does each NAS need it's own unique account? If so how is each NAS set to sync data from the others? Ta Nathan
How to Reboot ReadyNAS Pro 4 through command line?
Hi, I have a ReadyNAS Pro 4, which was working fine since yesterday and now from a server on the same network I can ping my readynas IP and I can ssh into the ReadyNAS as well, but I don't get the frontview on firefox and IE. I did clear the cash on both, which didn't help. I want to reboot (NOT shutdown) the ReadyNAS as I can ssh into it. I am far away from my ReadyNAS! Is the any straight forward/ no hasle command to do a reboot through command line on ReadyNAS? Thanks in advance.
ReadyNAS Ultra versus PRO and Egnyte
I know that Egnyte is only certifying the PRO range, but the Ultra seems very similarly speced. Question 1: Has anyone actually tried any ReadyNAS Ultra and Egnyte? Is it possible to load the Egnyte add-on? Question 2: What IS the difference between an Ultra and a Pro? Thanks.OLC "error getting local snapshot"
Hi, since yesterday (more or less, I don't know exactly), our OLC can't sync with Egnyte. The only message displayed in the logs is "error getting local snapshot". Time ago, following a reboot, the NAS lost the right time (due to Netgear faulty NTP servers) and gave this same error. But now there hadn't been any reboots, and the time is right. Is there something I can look to find what's going on?
Accessing the ELC data share for LAN only users
A little clarification required please I have a site of say 50 users and of these the 5 managers need access to their data via Egnyte and the OLC Software. This is all setup beautifully but I'd like the remaining 45 users who only need SMB access on the LAN to just connect as they do now using \\servername\share and map that as a Mapped Network Drive in Windows. Those 45 users do not need to access the cloud just the local SMB share so am I right in seeing that I just need to have five power user accounts and then 45 local user logins or one master account, for sake of argument LanUser, that gives them rights to the data share. Is this configuration possible by putting the data in the ELC share and creating cloud and readynas logins for the managers and just a local NAS login for the remaining 45? If so, I guess that I manually add the LanUser name to the security of the ELC share? I have raised this with support but they are suggesting I need Power User for anyone who wants to map a network drive and I think the confusion maybe in the difference of a mapped SMB drive (via the LAN) and a mapped Egnyte Drive (using an HTTPS webdav logic) Is this possible as it seems the right approach to use for an office based company with a few users requiring Power User access when they are offsite Regards, Mark
What exactly does it offer?
I have a ReadyNAS (NVX). It has an IP address. I backup daily to an external device and use ReadyNAS Vault for my most important items so they are backed up almost instantly and have versions available. What does the Egnyte cloud service offer me that my always connected ReadyNAS doesn't (and why can't my ReadyNAS offer it to me directly)?
Choosing a ReadyNAS server
Hey all! My small little company is on the cusp of committing to Egnyte as our file sharing system, and as most of our users are local, we have decided to go with the "Office Local Cloud" solution via a ReadyNAS. I'm not sure which NetGear ReadyNAS would suit us, so I was hoping you might help me decide. Currently, we're running Windows Server 2003 and the file space we currently use is around 800 GB. Not all of that is 'active' - about half of that is archives, backups, and OS files. What else should we need to take into consideration? We need something to hit our minimum obviously, but we're a small environmental consultancy - we don't have much money to spend on going over the top in any area either. Thanks for your help! -W
