Moved server to new location ... can't connect

[sfleck]

I had a client wanting my setup so I brought my NAS to demo at there location.

 

I set the network to DHCP in settings and I know the current IP of the server. When I check the status of my online server it is online ... but won't connect locally. 

 

Do I need the port forwarded when connecting locally? I didn't think I would.

It's online for sure.

And this is coming from where (or what)?   You need to post a lot more information/details about this setup and what services are not connecting-- GUI, SMB, NFS, etc.  The diagnostics file would also be a big help!   (You may need a monitor and keyboard to generate this file...)

How do you know the IP?

i scanned the network and can see my Asrock motherboard and IP address.

 

The info i sent is from: https://forums.unraid.net/my-servers/

Open up Windows Explorer and type:   

\\I.P._ADDRESS

or/and  

\\SERVERNAME

 

in the resource/location window.  

 

Also, in your browser, try typing:

//I.P._ADDRESS

or/and

//SERVERNAME

Connect a monitor and keyboard to see what the status of the server is.  If you have a login prompt, login and type

diagnostics

and upload it in a new post.

 

I do not use the My Servers plugin so I don't have a clue if this might be playing a role in this. 

 

I thought it might be that you did not have things set up properly for a virgin Windows SMB configuration but you do have not a GUI (apparently).  That would indicate that Windows SMB is a secondary factor at best.

 

One thing to try is to use a new Flash drive and do a virgin install.  If you know the drive assignments, you could assign them identically in this install and you would have a basic NAS running.   (If you have a  recent diagnostics file, you can find these in the smart folder...)
