Re: Authentication problems
@Zenimi,
are you working with your device in a AD Domain ?? Because what do you do with local credentials in a AD-Enviroment ?? But maybe i interprete you wrong...
@Andydietl
I think it has something to do with the SAMBA-Part of the QNAP-Firmware.
I was in contact with Jauss of QNAP-Developers. I gave the RDP access to our Network so that they could get a sneakpeak at the problem and after this i
gave the new beta Firmware a try and it's working here now.
So i think in the next few weeks the should be the new firmware release and the this problem should be gone.
Best Regards
Peter

Re: Authentication problems
I have this issue as well. It seems a NAS reboot solves it for me, which isn't ideal (809-U). Haven't had the chance to try a SMB restart from SSH yet. I did upgrade to 3.2.6 firmware and it seemed to make things worse, with the NAS effectively crashing at least once a day (with very high load issues). Look forward to the new firmware, as I've had to go back to 3.2.4 for the moment.

Re: Authentication problems
Yes I am in AD environment. The Credential Manager is used to store user names and passwords to internet or network address, and there's nothing local about it.peterd wrote:@Zenimi,

Re: Authentication problems
Hi I have a TS-459 pro, i am experiencing the exact same issue wih the AD integration... unc to IP works but netbios name doesnt. if i use the admin username and password it WILL connect - if it doesnt you need to remove the nas login credentials from the "manage network passwords" in user acounts. The netbios path it seems to work only when the client pc doesnt get rebooted after the admin usr name has been used. I use login scripts to map drive and i can have crap like this going on - what is the solution QNAP????????.

Re: Authentication problems
I am having this problem as well with my TS-509 on firmware 3.3.0 build 629T. I joined the QNAP to my domain and I can access the NAS' share folders via IP, but not by DNS name. When I try to access the NAS via DNS name, I am prompted for authentication, but neither my administrator account nor my own account are working.
I have tried restarting the SMB services, but this has not helped. I have also looked for stored credentials as others have suggested, but this has not helped.

Re: Authentication problems
Same issue here, but it seems to only affect clients running Windows Vista or 7. I myself am using Windows 7 Ultimate x64, and find this issue very annoying.
NAS version: 3.3.0 Build 0629T

Re: Authentication problems
Hi,
Until now, we have found 2 main causes for this issue.
First cause : Windows stored the wrong password in the credential manager and cause the connection failure with the hostname.
On windows 7, find the credential manager in the control Panel : In Windows 2003, you should find "Stored User Names and Passwords" in the control panel.
Here an URL about Stored Password : http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/libr ... S.10).aspx
Second cause : A Time difference caused by the DST (Daylight Saving Time).
Example : If you disable DST on the domain controller, enable DST on the NAS and set the correct time on the NAS, then the authentication will work with the IP (using NTLM) and it will fail with the hostname(because in this case the PC will try kerberos authentication with the domain controller, and will reject the connection because of the time.)
Make sure that the Time-zone on the NAS, on the Domain controller and on the Client PC are the same.
Also, please synchronize the time of the NAS with the Domain controller using NTP :
System Administration > General Settings > Date and Time
Then configure the synchronization with your Domain controller.
If after the synchronization you have 1 hour difference, check your DST settings.

Jauss

Re: Authentication problems
OK, I fixed it. That's embarassing.
I didn't notice that the time on my domain controller was off by a day. I had it on July 13, not July 14. I checked this before, but clearly not well enough.
Thanks Jauss.

Re: Authentication problems - still have this on TS-439 Pro
Hi, I'm experienceing this same problem (failure to accept authentication based on AD user/password for access to shares showing in Explorer under My Network Places). The environment is:
Windows Server 2003 running AD.
Client is Windows XP Professional SP3
NAS firmware is 3.3.0 Build 0629T
Both client machine and NAS have been successfully joined to the domain.
I cannot get to shares either by using the FQDN or the ip address.
As suggested, I've checked the time, time synchronisation and daylight savings settings on server, NAS and client and confirmed they are all correctly set and showing identical time.
Have also removed any cached userids/passwords on client machine (Control Panel, User Accounts, Advanced, Manage Passwords). None were stored on the server.

Re: Authentication problems
Dear JK,
The fastest way is to contact technical support for assistance by those way :
Online Support Form: <http://qnap.com/onlinesupport.asp>
MSN: q.support@hotmail.com
Skype: qnapskype
Meanwhile, you can check your NTLM setting: If you enabled NTLMv2 only on your domain, do the same on the NAS. (Microsoft Networking > Advanced settings)
Also, can you connect with a domain user by webfile manager ? (by default the format is domain+username)
If not, the best is to contact the support.
BR,
Jauss

Re: Authentication problems - caching, fixed by reboot
Thanks for your reply, Jauss - turns out the problem must have been cached credentials somewhere - a restart of both the NAS and the client PC got things working as desired.
