I am a newbie with Freenas. I have a simple home network. I am running 1 box with windows XP, 1 box with Ubuntu and 2 laptops with Windows 7. I installed FreeNAS with a 2 HD drive setup. I have been able to install FreeNAS and have it running. I used the GUI to first set up a volume. Then I set a group (BufStorage) and then I set up a user (User1). I gave User1 a password. I made User1 part of BufStorage and gave the group Write permissions. I used the GUI to create a Windows Share which I called WmStorage and I turned on the CIFS service.
The problem is logging in from the Windows machines. They both have the same problem. I am able to navigate to FreeNas\BufStorage which I click on and then the connect to localhost box comes up. I enter User1 as the user and I enter the password. The login just comes back up. I do not get any error messages but I do not get a connection. Any assistance would be appreciated.
