Squirreljester Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 (edited) I have 2 NAS's, unRAID and a Synology. I recently rebooted my unRAID server and my Synolgy. Afterwards I noticed the SMB shares for my Synology aren't showing up when I browse to \\unraidserver. The shares are accessible from my computer via \\Synologynas and from the docker container where I have them mapped to /mnt/remotes/. They also appear as mounted SMB shares in unRAID's main menu with a green dot next to them. Everything appears to work fine except that they just don't show up in my explorer window anymore. Nothing has changed on my unRAID server or the Synology other than I had to power them both down and back up recently, and the issue started right after that.

SMB Security was set to No but setting it to Public made the shares show up again, thanks! Can you explain why those shares are considered "unassigned devices"? It wouldn't have even occurred to me to check there. I thought unassigned devices are devices that aren't assigned, like storage disks not yet assigned to an array. Quote Link to comment

Originally UD only handled locally attached devices so it’s name was just what one would expect. Over time it’s functionality has been extended to handling shares on remote machines and making them appear as if they were local devices so in that sense they can still be considered unassigned devices.

Interesting, didn't know that. I'll have to keep that in mind for the future. Quote Link to comment
