hello unRaid community, lloking for a solution :

 

i installed unRAID Server Basic with 4.4.2. after i set up the disks as parity and formated the rest.

everything look green and is running well. BUT how can i access on the storage?!?!

 

i like to access from a windows xp maschine and a mac book pro. with windows i can see the

server in my homenetwork but if i try to access, windows said network path can not find and

on the server can not access.

i'm newbie and maybe the problem is the late time in germany at the moment. i think its just a

tiny stupid questions, but it would be nice, if anybody can help me.

 

ok i set up user shares which i forgot before. now i can see and copy files from my mac via smb://servername etc. but how can i access from windows xp. i tried //servername/usershare/*.* but the windows blow up and wanna have a username and passwort.

the root access data is not working.

 

why can i not get access. in my lan network before also evrything works fine??!?!

In windows file-explorer, use backslashes, not forward slashes.

 

So, to get to the server type

\\servername\usershare

you are right. with another pc windows xp  i can access with the normal way now \\unRaid\data

 

but why is there a problem with my first pc with windows xp.

 

what can i configure so that also these maschine can see the nas server.

the second pc with windows xp can read and write everything ok.

 

but not the main, first pc. has anybody an idea? for exapmle i cann access from both pc's

on there shared folders in my network. but the first pc cannot access the unraid nas.

Make sure both PCs are set to the same workgroup name as the unRAID server.  It almost sounds as if one is, and the other is not.

not right. cause i can share files between the pcs without trouble. so the same workgroup ist set. its a tiny windows xp configurationen with is wrong.

 

OR can the unraid server (3version) only handle one maschine at the same time. big thanks for support!

I've had every version of unRAID on my server from version 1 onward.  Every one of them has been able to serve all the machines on my LAN, and I usually have 4 or 5 on at any given time.    The only time I had to do anything odd was for my media servers, as they try to log into the server as "administrator" and then "guest" and lastly as "media"  I had to add a user named "media" on my unRAID server to let them log in.

 

Do you have passwords and logins configured on your XP box?  You might need to put an equivalent ID for it to use on the unRAID server.

ok thanks for this post, i will migrate the system to windows7 over x-mas. after changing the os i will see what happened.

 

do you use the 6 hd version?

do you use the 6 hd version?

 

The unRAID software is identical for all licenses.  It is the license that determines the maximum number of array drives, and may limit access to features.

 

Probably a long shot, but check what IP addresses are assigned to all of your machines, including routers and switches.

thanks RobJ!

 

The Problem was very stupid. The Firewall blocked the IP from my UnRaid Server by maschine one.  Other maschines in

my network had not a small range of trusted IPs like maschine one. Thanks for all replies!!!!
