December 30, 20223 yr Greetings everyone, One of my Unraid servers doesn't appear to have the 'Unraid' User Share (pointing to /mnt/user/unraid) and I can't seem to be able to make it. My understanding is that it's a standard one. I have upgraded recently from 6.9.2, but it wasn't there as well, so perhaps it's not related to that upgrade. How do I create it again? Sorry if it's a stupid question and thanks for your help. archonone-diagnostics-20221230-1225.zip Edited December 30, 20223 yr by Penguin spelling

My understanding is that it's a standard one. It is NOT a standard share. If you want a share named "Unraid" you need to create it.

Thanks, I don't recall creating it in my other server though... Creating a new share with such a name in the UI will place it along with others like /mnt/user/unraid/unraid and it's not what I need, which is a share to the root of all shares. How do you do it to be created there in /mnt/user/ to look like this /mnt/user/unraid? Appreciate your help! Here's how it's done elsewhere:
December 31, 20223 yr Solution Since what you're describing is not a normal share, Maybe you did it via Unassigned Devices or had followed some Social Media Influenza unraider? Specifically this part of that post sounds similar, but you used a different name for it than "rootshare": Quote Root Share You can create a root share in UD and collect all your shares in /mnt/user/ into one named root share. The root share is then accessible at /Tower/rootshare. There are some advantages and disadvantages to this approach: You control the root share permissions in UD Security settings. You may increase your risk of a malware attack by having all your shares accessible on one root share. Use secure passowrds! * Intentional Letter Kenny reference
December 31, 20223 yr Community Expert The path to the user shares is /mnt/user. The path to a user share named unraid is /mnt/user/unraid. 4 hours ago, Penguin said: like /mnt/user/unraid/unraid That is a folder named unraid in a user share named unraid. With Unassigned Devices, the path to the rootshare is /mnt/rootshare. Not sure how you did a root share on your other systems. Possibly something in SMB Extra.
