Any word from d-link on this?

Will the soft ing. go back to the way it was, or will this be a "feature" going from v1.08 and on?

[gunrunnerjohn]

I've heard nothing from D-Link about that functionality coming back...

[nohelp]

Interesting. I just tried this with the new beta and it worked.


I'm setup like this:
   
Music   Volume_1/Media/Music   ALL       No   No         
Volume_1   Volume_1   Bob       Yes   No   

Access to Volume_1 prompts for a userID and access to "Music" doesn't. It just lets me in. I also double checked the smb.conf file in the /etc/samba folder and in the section on access it shows like this:

[ Music ]
comment =
path = /mnt/HD_a2/Media/Music
valid users =
read only = yes
guest ok = yes
oplocks = no
map archive = no

[ Volume_1 ]
comment =
path = /mnt/HD_a2
valid users = Bob
read only = no
guest ok = no
oplocks = yes
map archive = no

If you can access it, make sure guest=yes is set.

How about getting it to work with Windows?

How about getting it to work with Windows?

Sorry. That's what I meant. This is accessing it from my Vista box. Didn't try XP. The Smb.conf part was referring to access the DNS via SSH to modify the Samba server configuration.

You need something like funplug installed to look at those values, right?

[nohelp]

right

[gunrunnerjohn]

No joy here.  I created a new folder under Volume_1, but can't access it.  I allowed access to ALL accounts, which is what used to work.  I'm running 1.08b8

Music   Volume_1/Media/Music   ALL       No   No         
Volume_1   Volume_1   Bob       Yes   No   

Access to Volume_1 prompts for a userID and access to "Music" doesn't. It just lets me in.      

K, but what does your DNS-323 user list looks like?, is there a user setup with the same username/password has your Vista account ?

Because the issue is that if the Windows user account is in the DNS-323 user list... all seams to be ok,
its when the account is NOT listed in the DNS-323 that it starts to ask for credential to any type off access.

[gunrunnerjohn]

If your windows login name/password is in the user account list, you have passworded access by definition.  The whole issue here is allowing anonymous shares for some folders and password protected shares for others.

[nohelp]

In my case, Bob is a user on both the DNS-323 and my Vista. When I'm logged in as Bob, I have access to Volume_1 and everything else with W/R. When I log into my Vista as another user who is not setup on the DNS-323, I do not have access to the Volume_1 and have read only access to Music without it asking for any credentials.

Not sure why it's working for me but it seems to behave like it did with 1.06

[gunrunnerjohn]

I created the separate folder and added a share name, but I have no access to it unless I enter the password for Volume_1.  It appears properly, and if I assign an account to it, I can then access it using a unique name/password.

I see no difference from the last beta.

I'll play around with it tonight to see if I can get it not to work for me. The only thing I can think of now is A:I have funplug installed and B:my folders were already created.

Do you have XP or Vista? I'll try both when I'm testing.

[gunrunnerjohn]

This test was from an XP machine.

[Buhric]

In my case I tested from all 3 OS
XP, Vista and Windows 7

Same result in all fo them after the upgrade to v1.08b8
