Hi all,
I have freenas set up on an old laptop, well this weekend I was rearranging my room and I don't think the laptop was shut down correctly because everything stopped working. I think my USB and/or hard drives got corrupted. I had to reformat and re-install everything to get it back up and running.
I had been running 9.0, but I had to roll back to 8.3 (9.1 just would not load for me; must not be compatible with my hardware).
I got my NFS shares set up just fine, but I cannot get my CIFS shares to work for the life of me. I have three Windows machines and none of them will detect freenas over the network, or connect using drive mapping.
My osx machine detects that there is a CIFS share, but it is unable to open any of the folders. I haven't tried connecting on osx using the server IP, but I assume it will work. My Pi is reading the NFS shares with no problem.
When I reinstalled, I named my user the same as before and set most of the other names and settings as close to what they were before. I ran this command to flush and reload the name cache, thinking that might be the problem:
I also ran this command to detect errors in shell, but I couldn't really interpret the results:
Let me know if you have any leads or suggestions. There are so many configuration options that I don't really understand that it would take me ages to solve by trial and error. Thank you!
