I manage the network for a small private school. We use Active Directory on Windows 2008 to manage users and workstations within the school, but we are having intermittent problems with our Terastation Pro. The NAS seems to lose its connection to Active Directory every few hours. To fix the problem, we have to login through the web admin, resupply the administrator credentials for Active Directory, and try to reconnect. Sometimes it takes a couple tries for the settings to take. We didn't start having this problem until after daylight savings. I thought the problem might have something to do with the system clocks being out of sync...but the Terastation time seems to match up with our server time. I'm officially out of ideas.
Since this is the location where we redirect user folders, we can't afford for this device to continue to lose its connection. Can anyone help?
It sounds like you need to make sure the GMT is set correctly.
