kuhnamatata Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 My windows networking started failing intermittently a couple of weeks ago, I was able to restore by re=booting my server but now recently can not be re-started after booting. I have replacing the ethernet hardware which did not help and checked syslog and found this, any suggestions on what I need to do to fix problems below, I did run Memtest with no errors, complete syslog is attached Aug 25 21:30:08 Tower kernel: e820: update [mem 0xcde00000-0x12fffffff] usable ==> reserved Aug 25 21:30:08 Tower kernel: WARNING: BIOS bug: CPU MTRRs don't cover all of memory, losing 768MB of RAM.

trurl Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 What do you get with? ifconfig Link to comment
kuhnamatata Posted August 26, 2014 Author Share Posted August 26, 2014 Thanks trurl for taking a look, here's what I get Linux 3.9.11p-unRAID. root@Tower:~# ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:30:48:b0:6b:ac inet addr:192.168.2.2 Bcast:192.168.2.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:716766 errors:0 dropped:3 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:2020609 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:108372484 (103.3 MiB) TX bytes:1452165498 (1.3 GiB) Interrupt:42 Base address:0xc000 lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:65536 Metric:1 RX packets:81161 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:81161 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:16447943 (15.6 MiB) TX bytes:16447943 (15.6 MiB) root@Tower:~# Link to comment
kuhnamatata Posted August 27, 2014 Author Share Posted August 27, 2014 Ok, looks like the problem might have to do with windows 8.1 and their most recent round of security updates, I am able to access my unraid SMB shares from my windows 7 PC's but not my windows 8 PC's, I will post more after I figure it out. Als i'm going to take a guess that the portion of the syslog I posted above might mean I should update my BIOS, I have a supermicro C2SEA with BIOS version 8.00.15 dated 10/08/08 Link to comment
kuhnamatata Posted August 27, 2014 Author Share Posted August 27, 2014 Found the problem, under "Advanced sharing settings" I had to switch from "Allow Windows to manage homegroup connections (recommended)" to "Use user accounts and passwords to connect to other computers" not sure why it all of the sudden became a problem. Still need to figure out the BIOS message above, maybe i'll start a new post with that as the subject. Link to comment
kuhnamatata Posted August 27, 2014 Author Share Posted August 27, 2014 Spoke to soon, I can access shares just have no write access even though I have me as the user set to read/write under shares in unraid Link to comment
trurl Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Clear any unRAID credentials on the Windows machine in Control Panel - Credential Manager. And/Or net use * delete from a Windows Command Prompt. Is unRAID configured as the Local Master? (unRAID Settings tab, SMB Settings) Link to comment
kuhnamatata Posted August 28, 2014 Author Share Posted August 28, 2014 I had cleared credentials earlier and that did not help, the net use * /delete responded with an empty message. Yes my UnRaid PC is set to Master. I did get one of the win 8 PCs to work again by switching to "Use user accounts and passwords to connect to other computers" and back to "Allow Windows to manage homegroup connections (recommended)" the other lets me see the shares but gives me no access when I try to open them.
