Some folders hidden in windows but show in web file manager

[rekim]

Hello,
I made a new share and have been filling it up.
Certain folders don't show up when you visit from a windows machine though. They work fine from the web file manager though.
You can get to them if you know their name and type it in the address bar but they folder containing them shows up blank.

Any advice?

Cheers,
Mike.

How came these files to the NAS folders? Copied from Windows using Microsoft File Ssharing for example? Or by NFS (wuth whatever gid/uid...), from expanding ZIP or RAR archives with non Unicode/UTF8 filenames?

Configured the NAS for using Advanced Folder Permissions (ACL support)?

Hello,

It was copied from a windows 2003 server command prompt using xcopy to a mapped drive. It doesn't show up in dos either, ftp works though.

"Enable Advanced Folder Permissions" is unticked. I have access to it all, they are just hidden from the listing somehow.

Thanks,
Mike

Ok. Start with this:

[~] # set_volume_mode [sharename]

And check if the files become visible again in the listings.

hi rekim

got the same issue a week ago. Was solved by changing the linux attributes of the file from 777 to 770.

subejcted topic is relatd to gthe legacy TS-109/209/409 - where the Microsoft File attributes were mapped to the U**X protectin mask. By default, this does _not_ apply to any newer NAS models - unless somebody has modded the smb.conf in a non-supported way.

Hi, thanks for the posts, I'm really sorry but I think I may have entered the wrong product in the details .
I'm having this issue with a Qnap Ts-412 4-bay Nas Enclosure.

I tried the "set_volume_mode [sharename]" approach. I assumed that you wanted me to terminal in and login as admin which is how I did it.
It doesn't seem to have fixed it though.

I've also looked at the permissions and they are consistently 777 across the folders that show up and the ones that don't.

I've tried changing it to 770 and it's still hidden.

In the end I just made a new folder at the same level and Moved the content into it using the web file manager and it's now displaying.
I'll avoid using xcopy to it in the future.

I still have the old hidden folder if you would like me to try anything out.

Thanks,
Mike
