hi guys,

I had a Win7 64bit installation with about 15TB of networked storage over various hard drives and USB caddies. the shares worked fine and i was able to stream all my movies and music to my POHD. i decided to give Ubuntu 10.10 a try and really like it but i am now having problem accessing my NTFS drive with the POHD.

I have set the permissions in Ubuntu using the shares-admin command. my POHD sees my network shares and logs on to PC1/WORKGROUP.

The various drives how up in the menus but when i try to access it asks for a logon and password. it defaults to guest, so i change it to my ubuntu logon but i keep getting a LOGON FAIL message. very frustrating at the moment.

network setup on the POHD is as follows

Wired LAN Setup 192.168.1.6
Wireless Setup Off
PPPoE Setup Off

Host Name pc1
Login Control On
Bit Torrent and Samba On


Can anyone shed any light on what I may be doing wrong. Many thanks

just to let you guys know, i am using software V7.0.6 r4107. i believe this is a beta firmware. don't know if that will make any difference.

just upgraded my firmware to v7.3.4 r4824 but it has made no difference. still get the default guest logon screen. i change the username and password but still get LOGON FAIL.
