The customer deleted a share on the NAS and created another share with the same data. However, the Windows clients could still "see" the share - but could not mount it.

They received a 'no permissions' error when they tried to mount the share.

The 'new' share mounted all OK ... and no other shares were affected.

Changes

none

Cause

It is not certain what in the Windows 'enviroment' caused the issue or, for that matter, where the 'old' share information was "cached" in their network.

Solution

As the customer was just renaming the share, all he did was to remove the new share name after copying back the data on the NAS from the 'new' share name to 'old' share name.

Example:

1, Select Project from BUI

2, Rename the share in the BUI by clicking on the share name to the top left of screen

3, change from <original name> to <new share name>

NOTE: this will disconnect services ( a warning is listed )

4, Now change the name back , <new share name> to <original name>

Note: The 'new' share name does not persist after deletion .
