May 18, 200818 yr I have a problem and don't understand. We have the Unraid Sever Plus with 4 SATA drive, before I turned on user shares with password everything was great, once I turned it on all was not great. Once user security was turned on if I browsed to the Unraid sever and open a share it would take a minute or longer before I could see inside that folder. Once inside the folder it would be better but the first access of the share was extremely long delay almost like it had to time out a few times before it would open. I also had mapped all the shares on my PC so every time you logged in on the computer it would take longer then normal. I turned user security back off again and everything is working fine again. One last question when I switched from the WD IDE drive to the Samsung SATA drives the temp no longer show up on the web interface do I need to load something for the SATA drive to registered the temps. If you need me to run a syslog do you want it before the user security is turned on and after? If you need any other logs you will have to help me to run them, I know nothing of the command line. Thanks, dave
May 19, 200818 yr Author It does not matter if the disk are spun down or not. Almost all the user shares are set up as read only the disk shares are read write hidden that way I can map to the disk share and make changes but rest of the family can only view the shares.

May 21, 200818 yr Author Thank you that did help speed up access. I can now turn on user share security and the network access speeds are much better. If I telnet into it, it only takes 10 seconds now to get the log in prompt instead of the 45-50 seconds before.
May 22, 200818 yr There must be 100 reports of this. Tom says (I don't argue) that this is NOT a proven improvement though (not exact words, sorry Tom, I may have to look it up). I wonder who is right. I have it like that anyway.
May 22, 200818 yr 10 seconds to get a login prompt still indicates it is taking a long time to resolve the path to your server. When I telnet to my unRAID server, the login prompt is nearly instant. After you added the lines to your "go" script, did you reboot so they would be invoked? If you type the following command, what is the output? cat /etc/resolv.conf If you type the following command, what is the output? cat /etc/hosts If you type the following command, what is the output? ifconfig eth0 When you added the lines to your "go" script, did you change the IP addresses to be those of your nameserver and unRAID server? Do you use DHCP to assign an IP address to your server? Or did you assign a fixed IP address? What is is the IP address of your unRAID server? What kind of router do you use? Might you accidentally have more than one machine assigned to the same IP address? Joe L.

I wonder who is right. I have it like that anyway. It's not an improvement. It's dealing with a problem in name resolution. if DHCP does not assign a Nameserver, then you are putting one in there manually. If name resolution is inactive due to lack of an entry in /etc/resolv.conf or the name server does not answer, then the entry in the host table is the fall back. because tcp_wrapper may be involved, reverse lookups happen in telnetd. via inetd.conf # Telnet server: telnet stream tcp nowait root [b]/usr/sbin/tcpd[/b] in.telnetd There's a missing parameter on the settings page when manually defining an IP address. There should be a setting to set the name server list manually. In almost all machines I've worked with, the /etc/hosts table is populated with the current ip address and hostname. On my unraid servers I have a script to do this upon bootup after the address is defined. Is it an improvement no, the manual echo to /etc/hosts and /etc/resolv.conf are satisfying an issue with the environment.

Hey Guy Sorry I was gone for the weekend I must have had type in my go script or my DHCP server updated it's tables but I retyped the two lines in my go scripts and rebooted everything on my network and now access is great. TelNet is instante and file access are wonderful Thanks again to all
