Good evening,
I am trying to setup FreeNAS on an HP ProLiant DL360 G7 server. It all worked fine until I tried connecting with Windows XP.
I have some groups&users setup, all working well, and Windows SMB sharing. With this setup, I can see the server under "Network" on both Windows 7 and Mac OS X and then connect to it as one of the users created. However, with Windows XP, I do not see the server in the Network section and can only connect by going to \\192.168.1.<someport>. Then I can try to login: a window pops up where I have to enter a username and password. All looks really good. Though, as soon as I enter my details again, the window simply pops up again and the username is suddenly prefixed by some computer name / username of the Windows XP machine. For example, "user1" turnt to "GEBRUIKE-F1727D\user1". I have found no way to solve this and I do not want to upgrade the computer to Windows 7.
How can I solve this? I am using the newest FreeNAS version.
Thanks in advance.
Sincerely, Björn
