Hi,
I have 2 questions :
1) It's possible to use credential account windows when you define a schedule download ?
2) I want save few folders from 'C:\Program Files' to my DNS-323 but if the folder name have 'space' char it's not possible. It's a bug or i doesn't setting correctly my NAS ?
ty, and sorry for my english. :)
Oops, my config :
DNS-323 rev: C fim: v1.07
3pc with Windows XP(sp3) Home Edition.

I can answer the second question, spaces in file or folder names aren't a problem.
Here's one of the folders on my DNS-323: Krissy Documents & Settings From Compaq
Note lots of spaces.
I'm trying to figure out what what exactly you're trying to do in question 1...

Sounds like he is trying to download from a login/password protected file/directory or account and looking for a way to prompt the completing of the login? ???

Well, if you're accessing password protected shares from Windows, that clearly works, that's what I do. I save the passwords so I don't have to keep entering them. I have other users configured on the NAS for my wife and daughter for their files.

Ok, i doing few tests with spaces in folder name and that work correctly now, but the folder are need shared, spacesname is not my problem.
Ex:
Account: anonymous
Type: Folder
URL: \\NameOfMyPC\Data\Folder1\Try Folder With Spacesname\
Save to: Volume_1/Backup Files
'Data' is my real drive D: with full share access on my network (not good). Note: if i changed 'Data' by D: the schedule failed. But when you click on Test button, it's work fine, special no ?
Ex:
Account: anonymous
Type: Folder
URL: \\NameOfMyPC\D:\Folder1\Try Folder With Spacesname\
Save to: Volume_1/Backup Files
Don't work.
Sounds like he is trying to download from a login/password protected file/directory
True too. Don't work if i use Microsoft account.
Ex:
Account: name and password of my PC account (windows xp home edition).
Type: File
URL: \\NameOfMyPC\Data\MyFolder\Myfile.txt
Save to: Volume_1/Backup Files

Anonymous accounts don't work if you have any password protected accounts on this box. That got removed from the firmware some time back...

I find my problem for schedule dowload work correctly with acccount Microsoft and don't share folder.
The problem is just write correctly the URL.
Because it's impossible to use the name of drive in URL. Ex: for my drive D: this name is 'Data' and if i try \\NameOfMyPC\Data\Folder1\subFolder2 that's not good.
You need to use the letter of drive with '$' not ':'. Ex: D$ for the drive D:.
URL: \\NameOfMyPC\DriveLetter$\Folder1\subFolder2\...
Now it's possible to use a Microsoft account and the schedule work correctly without share folder :)
Full ex:
Login method: Account
User name: NameOfAccountMicrosoft
Password: SamePasswordOfAccountMircrosoft
Type: Folder
URL: \\BigPC\D$\Program Files\MyApplication\
Save to: Volume_1/BackupFiles
With:
NameOfMyPC is BigPC
DriveLetter is D
my DNS-323 make good job now :)
Edit: Work with Windows 7 Ultime, don't work with Windows Home Edition, it's a problem of version ? i need a Windows Professional ?
