Can not access to NAS from windows 7

[skyghost]

I just bought and setup the Patriot Valkyrie NAS as the following:

- Raid 1 1.5 TB storage
- Format as Ext2
- Name of the NAS = MYNAS

- Create an account homeuser with "no password required"
- Create an account master with a password "root"

- Create a folder "homedata" with "read/write access to all user"
- Create a folder "workdata" with "set access for individuals users" and set it to master with read/write access


When I browse the MYNAS, i can see the following folder
- admin, public, homedata, workdata

I can click to "public" folder, create,copy,read,write,update all ok.
When I click on "homedata", a prompt for user account show up, I try to login using homeuser account (E.g. MYNAS\homeuser) and leave the password empty but an access denied message show up.

I also try to login wth MYNAS\master with password = "root" and same "access denied" message show up.

Does anyone face the same problem and have a solution for it?
I running windows 7 - 64 bit mainly, but I also test it on windows xp and windows 7 - 32 bit as well and the result is the same.

I also note that there is a public folder and I would like to know how to turn off? or set quota limit?

I use it under Windows 7 64bit... I have found that every once in a while if you reboot windoiws too often (?) it seems to get confused about the NAS...
So I just shut down both the NAS and the PC and restart them both...

Also, Windows 7 gets right snarky if time and date on shared stuff is not almost the same on all devices...

Hope that helps.... At least I can tell you that it will work fine under windows 7 32/64 both... I've probably had 6 different machines hooked up to mine in the last week.... no problems...

I have not gotten 'read/write access to all user' to work correctly.

I play around and by some how be able to access with account that have username/password and username/without password. This make me so happy

Then I shutdown my NAS to re-location the device. After turn on the NAS, I try to re-access those share drive (I have mapped them) and then the message Access denied come up again. I then try on those account that has no password but still no-luck.

Next Test:
I create new user account, and use this new account to log to the NAS, walla, it is OK (no reboot).

Then I re-boot the NAS (and not re-boot my windows), then arrrrgg, the login fail again with access denied or login failure.

At this stage, I am still not sure what cause the problem yet (sometime work and sometime don't).

Next Test:
- I delete the user account that I create from previous test, then create new user account again with the same username and password, wallah it worked again.

- OK, then I try to edit a user account (the once that not work) and re-type in the same username and password. Click update. Then try access, crap not work at all, still access denied.

- OK, now, I delete the user account in the NAS. Re-create with same username and password. Then walla it is working again.


Conclusion:
It is seemed that, if I re-boot the NAS, then I have to re-create (by delete and create) all the users account again and this including those account that not required password.

My thinking: the NAS changed the seed for the password HASH key everytime the NAS reboot. However, the FTP is ok. This is may be the windows 7 itself, HASH the password before it is sending to the NAS where FTP is sending the password to NAS and the NAS HASH the password itself.


Now, what I want to know is how to force the windows 7 sending the password to NAS without Hash?
