Network & NAS Headache

[Mr.Entenmann]

I'm going to take a step back, this is the command I just ran; net use [name of nas] /delete, that was correct, if so then I'm stuck on your most recent question ?

Doing 'net share' shows the shares on the win8.1 machine
Doing 'net view' shows the machines

Anyway, remake the share, and put in username & password to the NAS, and it should work. (Post #17)

 

[Mr.Entenmann]

Net Share shows all my drives, including a Remote IPC.

Net View Shows, I assume, the current computer and the NAS.

 

[Elixer]

So, is it working now?

 

[Mr.Entenmann]

No I only listed what you said to list !

 

[Elixer]

I said...

Doing 'net share' shows the shares on the win8.1 machine
Doing 'net view' shows the machines

Anyway, remake the share, and put in username & password to the NAS, and it should work. (Post #17)

So, next step is remake the share.

 

[Mr.Entenmann]

The command, net share is not listing the drives on the NAS, only local drives.

 

[Elixer]

Right...since you need to create the share again.

 

[Mr.Entenmann]

I'm a little lost, none of the commands you told me to do recently (post #46) worked, why would this just work, don't take me the wrong way, I hope you can understand what I've been though to get this working ?

 

[Mr.Entenmann]

I double checked, the NAS isn't listed where you said it should be listed in post #17, nothing is listed.

 

[Elixer]

You said...

So, you delete the share here...

So, what is the problem now?
Recreate the share.

 

[Mr.Entenmann]

No, no, no. No share was ever deleted, no the NAS share, nothing. I mentioned the error previously; The network connection could not be found.

 

[Elixer]

...just wait until you receive my bill for this.

Post what net view shows you.

 

[Mr.Entenmann]

HaHa
Net view is showing, the current PC (Windows 8.1), the PC I'm trying to access the NAS and the NAS, that's all.

 

[Elixer]

Post what it shows... this isn't secret info you know.

For example:
C:\Windows\system32>net view
Server Name Remark

-------------------------------------------
\\MANGO Darn Fruit
\\ZETA
The command completed successfully.

 

[Mr.Entenmann]

\\pc-one
\\nasdrive Cloud EX2 Drive

Same as I mentioned

 

[Elixer]

Now do: (simple version)
net use x: \\nasdrive\sharename
(obviously, pick a letter that isn't in use...) and sharename is whatever you are sharing on the NAS.
Then, you should be able to browse x: in file explorer or anything else.

 

[Mr.Entenmann]

This is what I did;
L:\\\nasdrivename\[folder_I_want_to_share] (the emotion icon is suppose to be a colon)

System Error 67 has occurred.
The network name cannot be found

 

[Elixer]

It would be so much easier if you just copy and paste from the command window, I can't tell what you actually did. (right click on the window, select mark highlight what you need to, then right click again, and paste it here via ctrl-v)

net use l: \\nasdrive\share_name

Where \\nasdrive is what was shown in net view.

 

[Mr.Entenmann]

Ok I duplicated it exactly as seen in the command window, but if you don't find my typing sufficient
----------------------------------------------------------

\\PC-ONE
\\CREX2CLOUD Cloud EX2 Drive
The command completed successfully.


C:\WINDOWS\system32>cd..

C:\Windows>net use L:\\crex2cloud\File_Collection
System error 67 has occurred.

The network name cannot be found.

 

[Elixer]

\\pc-one
\\nasdrive Cloud EX2 Drive

Same as I mentioned

Argh!

Ok I duplicated it exactly as seen in the command window, but if you don't find my typing sufficient
----------------------------------------------------------

\\PC-ONE
\\CREX2CLOUD Cloud EX2 Drive
The command completed successfully.


CWINDOWS\system32>cd..

CWindows>net use L\crex2cloud\File_Collection
System error 67 has occurred.

The network name cannot be found.

Why are you posting different things than is actually on your system?

Last time, do:
net use L: \\CREX2CLOUD\File_Collection

 

[Mr.Entenmann]

I only posted things a little different, none the less same error as I posted in post #68, when entering this;
net use L: \\CREX2CLOUD\File_Collection

 

[Elixer]

You posted

\\PC-ONE
\\CREX2CLOUD Cloud EX2 Drive
The command completed successfully.


CWINDOWS\system32>cd..

CWindows>net use L\crex2cloud\File_Collection
System error 67 has occurred.

The network name cannot be found

That isn't the same as I wrote, hence why I said you need to copy & paste, since I have no idea what you are typing.

 

[Mr.Entenmann]

Alright, from here on in; I'll copy and paste

 

[Mr.Entenmann]

Do you have any other suggestions to get it to work ?
