1 TopicRN 102 permissions, unable to create/edit folders
Hoping someone can point me in the right direction here. I just noticed today that I am unable to create or edit files and folders on my ReadyNAS 102 device. It appears that I am able to access and read/write to the folders internal to the NAS but lost write access to the external devices (3 USB WD MyBook drives). I tried rebooting the NAS, and have looked at the permissions and nothing seems awry. The only recent change is I turned off anonymous access when granting cloud access to a friend earlier this week. I also suffered a power loss during a storm yesterday, but it was brief and nothing suffered any ill effects. I am re-enabling anonymous access to see if that makes a difference, but so far it has not. I have the three external devices mapped as network drives to my PC and when viewing them under File Explorer (Win10 Pro) the options to delete, make a new folder, rename, etc are all grayed out. Same if you right-click. Has anyone experienced this or know what else I should check? I have SMB enabled on all and the only change was the anonymous access. Any assistance is greatly appreciated.Solved3.3KViews0likes2Comments
