Unable to access shared folder with access restriction

[berniath]

Hi,

I've spent a couple of hour investigating this and have no idea really what i've done/doing wrong, any help gratefully received.

I have a linkstation LS-XL0C1 on firmware version 1.71

I signed into the admin site, and in Share Folders I created a new folder.
I selected create folder.
I ticked access restriction.
I selected a local group of admin
Save etc

Then when I open the file browser in windows 10 i get asked to provide a userid and password. I try admin and the correct password. Windows thinks about it for a couple of seconds and then comes back with the message:

\\LS-XLC01\foldername is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions.


I've followed the FAQ, but i cannot seem to get this to work. Can anyone help/advise?

Thanks

Create a user with the same user/password as the Windows session you are using, add it to the group and see if that helps.
