Windows 10 Refusing to connect to NetGear ReadyNas

[talksr]

Hi there,

 

I am having a nightmare trying to connect to our ReadyNas.

I keep getting the following error:

 

I have followed the link in the error, but not really sure how it relates to our specific ReadyNas device. Has anyone else had this problem?

Depending on the version of Raidiator some of them don't support smb2 so if you disabled smb1 after the wannaissues it won't let you on without upgrading the software. (or re-enabling smb1 on yours)

Which ReadyNAS model do you have? Does it support SMB2/SMB3 or have an update available that enables support for anything newer than SMB1?

 

If not, you'll either have to enable SMB1 on any Windows 10 PC that accesses it (not ideal, but not too bad if it's only your computer) or replace the NAS with something better.

 

Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName smb1protocol -NoRestart

Thank you guys. I am using a ReadyNas Duo v2.

It has firmware version RAIDiator 5.3.13.

I have checked it for system updates but it says it is fully up to date.

 

I can't see any options to enable SMB2 or 3.

@talksr try enabling : Enable Insecure Guest Logins must be enabled

 

Administrative Templates > Network >Lanman Workstation "Enable insecure guest logons"

does it support iscsi (i suspect the answer is no) as if it does you could always mount it on the server as drive e and reshare the data that way

I managed to enable SMBv2 on my very old ReadyNAS Pro Duo by using SSH. Netgear provided some excellent instructions on doing this, if that's the problem you're having. With it done, I can still access my device even though v1 is completely off for clients and servers.

If you are trying to connect from a Windows 10 version 1709 computer then you will have to enable SMBV1 from control panel as 1709 has it disabled by default.

I’m running a duo at my primary as a backup repository... already spotted that it doesn’t support SMBv2 even on latest firmware so will be putting it out of its misery when I start moving servers to 2016...

As I stated, if you are prepared to install the SSH add-on and edit the samba config, many of these older devices will work. I've successfully done so, and may patience is pretty limited with these things! This was at the same time as having to write off five Buffalo NASs that wouldn't support v2, so I was keen to not spend more than I had to!
