June 14, 201313 yr I have a new Windows 7 Pro SP1 installation on a wifi laptop that I can't for the life of me connect to my unRaid server. I've never had issues before with multiple new Win7 builds, and I've tried everything I've done in the past, but I can not get this laptop past "access denied" errors on the shared folder. Does anyone have any troubleshooting suggestions? Thanks!
June 14, 201313 yr You haven't given us much to go on, not even a mention of what you have already tried. unRAID version? Are the new PC and unRAID in the same workgroup? Are you trying to access a public, secure, or private share? Pingable? WebGUI accessible? IP addresses of both? Rest of network reachable from new machine? Rest of network can reach unRAID? etc.
June 16, 201313 yr I run Windows 7 Pro machines with a separate Linux box acting as a domain controller. When I install Windows 7 I need to make two registry changes to get the machines to join the domain, until I do this I get similar symptoms to what you describe. The registry changes are described here: http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Windows7 you probably just want the first two: HKLM\System\CCS\Services\LanmanWorkstation\Parameters DWORD DomainCompatibilityMode = 1 DWORD DNSNameResolutionRequired = 0 Regards, Stephen
