I've recently converted my drives to encrypted xfs.  Now I can't access any of my shares in Win10 file explorer.  This could be a windows problem and I wouldn't think the conversion could cause the problem.  At this point it's hard to tell.  According to Win diagnostics (yes, I know, not a good tool to use) Unraid is refusing my conection.  I can ping it, and access IU via IE.

 

If I'm missing something, please let me know

In what way are you unable to access your shares? Is it refusing your credentials or not connecting at all?

Have you read through this thread?

It's not connecting at all.  I tried opening a share through file explorer and I get the error "The network path was not found.  As you can see from the attachment I can ping the server but can't access it to add files.

Try using  Windows Explorer (Windows File Manager)  withe address     \\192.168.1.111    and see what the result is.  

There's a whole thread on windows issues with unRaid (actually with all NAS systems), but you can save yourself a world of trouble and instead of referencing \\tower, simply use the IP address instead

 

I get the same thing.

 

I have been reading through the windows issues thread.  I've downloaded the dynamix local master plugin trying to see who the local master is.  That's as far as I've gotten 

Enabling Samba and making the server the local master fix it.  I'm good now.  I'm probably guilty of it crapping out on me, oh well I fix it.  Thanks for the support

Post up your Diagnostic File      Tools   >>>>   Diagnostics   in a new post. 

 

EDIT:  Glad to see you got it working.  I was not looking forward to wading through a syslog file looking to see if SMB was running or if it had issues!   😌
