Hi all,
I set up a CIFS share a few weeks back using this guide to back up a few windows machines using the built-in file history utility in windows 10.
So far, everything has been working just fine on my desktop PC that is wired directly to my router. On my laptop, which is wireless, not so much.... I can easily find my CIFS share and connect to it using the username and password I set up on both machines.
The problem I seem to be having is when I map it as a network drive and reboot the laptop. Every time the laptop is restarted and/or shut down & powered on, it seems to forget the username & password, regardless if I tell it to remember the information or not.
Why does it keep doing this? Once I enter the username & password again, I can easily access the share as if nothing was wrong.
some info:
laptop & freenas server are both within the same LAN
laptop runs windows 10
freenas version: FreeNAS-9.3-STABLE-201501241715
freenas build (not sure if this is useful or not):
cpu- Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1230 V2 @ 3.30GHz
ram- Crucial 16GB (2 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM ECC Unbuffered DDR3 1600
motherboard- SUPERMICRO MBD-X9SCM-F-O
psu- SeaSonic G Series SSR-550RM 550W
hdd- HGST Deskstar NAS 3.5-Inch 4TB 7200RPM SATA III
any help is appreciated!
