Network Shares Disapearing
« on: December 01, 2013, 12:35:31 PM »

I have 2 Dns-320 with squeese installed on them and am having problems with the network shares 'sticking'

Unit A is HW ver A1 firmware 2.03 and failes all attempts to install a network share on volume_1. There is no error just a blank grid under Management / Network Management /  Network Shares Setting


Unit B is HW ver B2 firmware 2.03 and will take a network share but it will disapear after a day or 2

is there not a way to add shares from the command line and place in /boot/linuxrc ?

Hello, Brasscs.

I had a similar problem and I fixed it (well... I got no feedback from others, but everything is OK on my NAS). Please read this post and see if the solution works on your configuration(s).

If you use RAID, the script may need some fine tuning. PM me; I'll see what I can do to help you.

Good luck :)

hi i had read your thread but the big problem with my nas units was the inability to run this step from your thread.

Define all your shares via the web admin interface (via "Account Management" - "Network Shares");

in my case it only works on one of my two nas units. even then the one unit has to be constantly reminded about network shares.

i also could not find any dir structure in /mnt/HD/HD_b4 or a4

i had ffp .7 on both before i upgraded to squeese and was seeing the same problem.

last nite i put samba on and was able to get win7 to see a share. but this morning i can still see the share but SWAT now refuses to run for some reason.

would prefer to use your solution but i can't define the shares via Account Management - Network Shares

Hello.

You missed the right post. The solution you've tried to apply isn't really working; that's why I searched (and hopefully found) another way to solve the problem. Follow the instructions contained by the right post (this one) and you might end up solving this disappearing act.

Usually, the root network shares (Volume_1, Volume_2) appear after pressing the "Reset Network Shares" button. If they don't and you have no RAID defined, my advice is to downgrade the firmware to 2.02 (best transfer rates) and restore the factory settings (the procedure is here).

Can you paste here the results of running the command blkid on your NAS (with hidden UUIDs, of course)? It should be something like this:

Code: [Select]
/dev/loop0: TYPE="squashfs"
/dev/md0: TYPE="swap"
/dev/sda1: UUID="X1" TYPE="linux_raid_member"
/dev/sda2: UUID="X2" TYPE="ext3"
/dev/sda4: UUID="X3" TYPE="ext3"
/dev/sdb1: UUID="X1" TYPE="linux_raid_member"
/dev/sdb2: UUID="X4" TYPE="ext3"
/dev/sdb4: UUID="X5" TYPE="ext2"

Good luck.
