Mac OS X and Sitecom NAS MD-253
So I have this brand new Macbook Pro running Lion 10.7.2 and the Sitecom NAS MD-253.
The problem I have is that I can access the NAS only via FTP.
There's no way I can get access to it in any other way.
I see the NAS in Finder under Shared and when I try to connect to it, either via smb or afp the message I get is that I either no shares available or I am not allowed to access them on the server.
I am connecting to the NAS with the user I created through the NAS web interface and I am granted unlimited space on the NAS.
I tried removing the user, I tried changing the file sharing (under preferences) to smb, afp or both, resetting, restarting, rebooting: nada, zero, niet.
The only thing I didn't try (yet) was wiring connecting the NAS to the macbook, but this would defeat the purpose of having the NAS under the router...
Not to mention that I can't run time machine on the NAS, and I can't move the iTunes library to the NAS.
Any help is appreciated....and pls make it easy to understand for an illiterate like me 🙂
Thanks.
