February 5, 201610 yr Hello, Can I make a share, and share it with both AFP and SMB at the same time with both read and write without any issues? I remember then I used FreeNAS, that only one of them should be used at the same time. Just wondering if it is the same with unRAID, I could not find any information in the wiki
February 5, 201610 yr I don't think it's an issue. I've been doing it for a while with a couple of shares that my wife hardly ever uses... for some reason she keeps wanting to do the good old manually plug in a USB hard drive backup approach no matter how many times I've told her that she can mount the share and do the time machine backup automatically over the network....

Why do you not mount it yourself then? I was wondering, if two people open a document, and edit it, what will happend when both people save it? I am not going to do this, but I was wondering.

Who ever opens the document first (even my milliseconds) will have a file-lock on it.

February 6, 201610 yr It makes it read-only to the second person. I use both AFP (with Macs) and SMB (with Windows) simultaneously with no issues.
