Connect to a network Hard-drive (NAS)?

Hi Camelot,

Appreciate your response..

However, forgot to mention that there was a Windows utlity software that you install on a Windows PC, to kind of manage the usb connected devices. It shows that both Hard-drive and the Printer are ready to be used. You can also access via HTTP, but it is featureless. I also configured a password on the USB Server for security. And previously tried AFP and SMB protocols, as you mentioned. I even tried HTTP protocol instead after getting a little desperate. Surprisingly, HTTP was the only protocol to prompt for a username and password, when there is only password configured! I tried all combinations of usernames along with the password I configured with no luck. Even tried the Guest access. 😢😢

Thanks ...JER for the response..

Which Network you're referring to. The Network under "System Preferences", OR the Network Connect under "Applications" folder?

I tried the second and it has the same results as the previous methods mentioned above. However, the first I'm still working with, it has a lot of options, nothing seems to be reasonable except for one option:

System Preferences>Network>AirPort>Advanced>WINS

I defined the server IP. But still, there are things seems to be missing. Can you please assist?

Regards,

Thansks again ...JER,

Unfortunately, nothing shows-up at my side. I tried also to disable the firewall, also with no luck.

On the other hand, The update here is that I've downloaded nmap to perform a "Comprehensive Scan" on the server. Maybe I can find another way into the system 🙂

I'll update this discussion if anything useful is found..
