RN3220 Unable to delete share
I have an RN3220 (f/w 6.10.8) that has a share I'm trying to delete but the system keeps on saying delete failed due to snapshot deletion failure. Snapshots are disabled. There are no files / folders of any type visible in the share - No "hidden" or "system" files either. Can anyone offer any ideas on why the NAS won't let me remove this share ??? Regards Mark
Backup ReadyNas 214 to External Drive
I'd like to back up my ReadyNAS 214. The shares have both Windows and Mac files on them. I understand that things can go south quickly when formats mistmatch. So, if i buy a target back up drive, which format should i use? NTFS, MacOS, some other format? The idea is if I have catastrophic failure on the ReadyNas 214, I'd have a back up to the backup and I could restore from that. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.1KViews0likes2Comments
Readynas Duo V2 cannot access configuration
I have a ReadyNAS Duo v2 connected to my home network with both Mac & PC (Win10) on the network with 2x4TB drives installed. Firmware version 5.3.13 I can perform write actions (add files, make new folders, rename files/folder etc) to the NAS share drives from the Mac, but not from the PC where I can only read the share files. Can access config page ReadyNAS [version 1.0.0.271] no problem. Share folders are all set up with Read/Write access for Everyone. No specific users are set up. Protocol-specific Settings are set to Automatic Permissions [checked] and Read/Write Access for all of : Folder Creation Group Rights; Folder Creation Everyone Rights; File Creation Group Rights; and File Creation Everyone Rights. I can't see anywhere else where to adjust the write permissions. Logs attached. Thanks in advance Phil1.5KViews0likes1CommentSMB Hidden Folders are not 'hidden'
Hi, I'm having a strange issue with hiding folders on my RN102. I have set certain folders to hidden that I dont want visible. On my linux box if I naviage to smb://nas2.local/ I only get three folders Music Pics Videos This is great. However if I navigate to the same path on my Windows boxes I have a extra folder data Music Pics Videos If I navigate in to the data folder every folder is visible, both hidden and non hidden. It's similar on the xbox/PS4. If I navigate to the NAS I get three folders to search but if I search by folder the entire contents of the data folder is visible. Can this be avoided? Thanks.Solved2.1KViews0likes2Comments
Windows 10 Enterprise: still no longer able to access NAS shares despite firmware v6.9.3 (followup)
Hi, This is a followup to below thread: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Using-your-ReadyNAS/Windows-10-Install-no-longer-able-to-access-NAS-shares/m-p/1467864 Resume: - Windows 10 Entreprise disabled SMB access to shares requesting/proposing the guest credentials. It won't even prompt for a user/pass account - ReadyNAS change log: OS 6.9.2 will fix this from the developers statements by disabling guest access - Until now, we were obliged to add in windows 10 the NAS credentials under which we need to access the SMB shares Current state using 6.9.3 firmware: - I tried to remove the corresponding windows credentail in the NAS: conenction is broken. I still need to add in windows 10 enterprise the NAS account to access the shares. It is behaving like if the NAS is still proposing guest access to windows 10 Bug report: This issue that was reported is still not fixed under 6.9.3. Any technical explanation and why we still need to manually add a windows account to access a NAS share ?Solved3.5KViews0likes8CommentsRN3138 From linux to SMB share
Hello. I'm running a FreePBX VoiP server and I'm trying to share recorded calls directly to the ReadyNAS SMB share. The problem is that I'm constantly getting a permision denied error. I've mapped the smb share on the PBX and I'm able to create folders and even files through mkdir or nano logged as root. Unfortunately the automatic system which saves the recordings is not using a root account or privilages - it uses different user. And that's where I'm stuck and I don't really know how to make it work. I've created a username on ReadyNAS with same credentials as on the PBX and it still doesn't want to work. Does anyone know how to make it work, or should I just try to do it in a different way (maybe an rsync? FTP?). I know it sounds complicated, but the goal that I want to achive is simple - to give everyone an access to their recorded calls right after they finish the conversation, and the default location of the recorded calls is on the PBX server where only I have access (and it has to stay that way :) ). I'm aware that it's not only ReadyNAS related, but maybe someone had simillar problem (maybe not directly with PBX but with any other linux-based system). Cheers.Solved1.2KViews0likes1CommentMy Ip camera data is not getting Stored and also data is not getting overwrite.

Samba/SMB share access issues with ReadyNAS OS 6.8.0 on RN202
Sir(s) et al I've manually upgrade my RN202 from [ReadyNAS OS 6.7.5] to [ReadyNAS OS 6.8.0]. After the upgrade I wasn't able any more to access my samba/smb shares from my Linux computers running Manjaro Linux (some kind of Arch Linux) and Debian 9 Stretch (on a cubietruck): - I can see/browse the shares, get asked for the credentials, but can't login to the share - My Nextcloud installation has the same issues - On a virtual Windows 10 i can access the shares - Enable/disable the new MAC-OS feature didn't solve the problem - Using the SMB Plus tool didn't solve the issue either After a dirty rollback to [ReadyNAS OS 6.7.5] everything went back to normal/expected behavior. Another member seems to has reported a similar issue here: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Using-your-ReadyNAS/samba-issue-with-mac-KODI-after-upgrade-to-6-8-0/m-p/1345769#M134953 Regards,Solved11KViews0likes14CommentsDropbox corrupting share permissions...
Hey guys, I've discovered an interesting situation that is quite frustrating. It seems that when you have strict permissions on a share, the embedded DB client will overwrite them with explicit permissions. Does anyone know what credentials the embedded DB client runs as? Here are the complete details as far as I have been able to replicate the issues. It's a bit long but I want to give as many details as possible to the Devs. Hardware: Model - ReadyNAS316 Firmware - 6.7.4 Configuration: AD Authentication enabled Share - /bob Network Access Tab - SMB only, user Bob R/W with no other users given any permissions. File Access Tab - Owner Bob, Group BobsGroup, user Bob R/W with no other users given any permissions. Cloud Config: Dropbox enabled Local Path - /data/Bob/Dropbox Sync Direction - Bidirection Layout: User Bob has W7 and W10 workstations off-site with Dropbox client installed. On-site he has X: mapped to \\{ReadyNAS}\Bob. The Scenario/Issue: Running locally, all works as expected. Any files placed in X:\Dropbox sync to the DB Cloud and back down to his home workstations with no issues. Files dropped on his Windows clients at home however cause an issue. They do sync up to the DB Cloud and subsequently to X:\Dropbox, though that part is not immediately evident, as ALL files immediately disappear from X:\. Yes, the root of the share displays empty, not just the \Dropbox folder. The fix for this is to go into the Admin console (which still shows the share access as I have created it, unmolested) and apply Everyone R/W to the File Access (which causes all the files to imediately repopulate if he has Windows Explorer open to view the folder), then remove Everyone and re-secure with Bob R/W. When looking at the logs you see nothing other than successes for any sync'ed files: Date, Time, Downloading /data/Bob/Dropbox/Document1.doc... Date, Time, /data/Bob/Dropbox/Document1.doc was downloaded to local. Now the REALLY strange part: When the folder is blanked out, if Bob locally copies any files to X:\, they are there. But when you do the access fix, they vanish and all the original files come back. Then, the next time access 'breaks', those new files return. None of these issues happen if you leave /Bob with the credentials Everyone R/W. It is only when you lock it down. My guess is there is some built-in credential in the embedded DB client that forces exclusive, low-level access to a share if it doesn't already have permission. Unfortunately, the Admin console does not display this new ACL. What it should be doing is appending it's credentials, or from the DB client config you should be able to specify what credentials it uses on the ReadyNAS side. The kicker is, however, once you have AD Authentication enabled, there does not appear to be any way to add the existing local accounts to a share. Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a fix available? This might be something requiring SSH would be my guess but then my warranty would be void which doesn't seem right. Thanks in advance!How to streaming the video from ReadyNAS 10400 under C3700-100NAR cable router from internet?
I have C3700-100NAR cable router connected xfinity Internet, and used 2 ethernet cable connect the C3700 to ReadyNas 10400 system. For the ReadyNas, i have open all the service such as FTP, SMB, HTTP and so on. And also shared the folder. I can streaming the video, music and open all the document from my iphone, ipad if i connected with router wifi, but my question is if i am away from home and outside, how can i visit my ReadyNas by internet and streaming the videoe? I know for Netgear, we have ReadyCLOUD apps, but it seems only can download the video instead of playing.3.2KViews0likes2Comments
