April 29, 201115 yr I searched all over for this, but I couldn't find it, maybe I missed it... Whenever I try to connect to my server from my MAC or my Windows 7 PC, I always have a login prompt so I can login as who I want... Well, I just had my roommate try to connect to my server, but it's not doing what I expected. Upon connecting by both ip and \\tower he logs directly into the server. No login prompt to specify the account. However, he cannot open any of the folders on the account. I'm assuming this is because the server doesn't know how he's logged in...any thoughts here?
April 29, 201115 yr Sounds like his browser thinks the pwd is cached. Has he tried clearing the cache, shut down the browser, restart browser and test? Also, clear any stored passwords... Shawn
April 29, 201115 yr Author It was the first time connecting...we did it directly through the run command not the browser... BUT, I can now connect directly to the shared tower on my MAC too... I get this in the log Apr 29 00:20:41 tower afpd[3353]: login noauth Apr 29 00:20:41 tower afpd[3353]: login nobody (uid 99, gid 100) AFP3.1
May 4, 201115 yr How do you have the shares exported? What security settings? What version? As per... Shawn
May 5, 201115 yr I have seen some other posts where users re-run the permissions script utility and that seems to fix some things. I assume you have rebooted local clients in your testing... Shawn

May 5, 201115 yr Well at this point I am out of ideas. If you exported as secure, he "should" get prompted for a ID/password. Because you do on two other systems and he doesn't on his, I think it is probably an issue with his box. Obviously it connects to the share but doesn't bother trying to authenticate. Somethign up with his firewall? File and Print sharing turned on? Maybe his box thinks your unRaid is in the public network? Checked LAN Manager Autentification levels in his local security policy? If they are to high, might not work... But would seem at this point something related to the local Win7 box... I saw this once on a Win7 box on a domain trying to access a DC but is somewhat similar. Had an old ID and password cached and would never ask for the right credentials. In Control Panel -> User Accounts -> Manage your Credentials. In here are a bunch of saved ID's and passwords. Trying deleting anything weird in there... Shawn
