Password request everytime I reboot my PC

Hi guys,

I've just got my DNS-323 a few days ago and so far, it seems to be working quite fine. I've been "experimenting" with it for a few days now and have installed funplug 0.5 on it and several other packages, ie. transmission and clutch, ssh.

However, one thing that I notice though is my mapped drive on my Windows XP PCs. I mapped the DNS-323 using the "Map Network Device" option on Explorer, enabled Reconnect at Logon and put my user name and password. But everytime I reboot my PC and try to access the mapped drive, it will ask again for my password.

I've added my user name using the DNS-323 web gui.

Is there any other step that I should do so that I won't have to re-enter my password everytime that my PC reboots?

Thanks in advance to those who will help. smile

Re: Password request everytime I reboot my PC

Are you using the same username AND password on the Windows AND the DNS-323?

Re: Password request everytime I reboot my PC

Yes there is.
1) right click on the my computer icon and click on disconnect network drive
2) disconnect the network drive that is the DNS
3) right click on the my computer icon and click on map a network drive
4) put in the proper path and drive letter -- DO NOT CLICK FINISH
5) click on the link to connect using a different user name
6) enter your user name and password that is on the DNS and click ok
7) click on reconnect at login
8) click finish

Instruction 5 and 6 are the important ones.

Re: Password request everytime I reboot my PC

bq041, I think for his problem, fordem has it correct.

My Volume_1 & Volume_2 are mapped to my PC the way you listed (thats just how I have always done it), and I am prompted for a password upon reboot of the PC.

When my ex was living with me (and not my ex), I had her account name & password the same as her laptop's info, and she NEVER got prompted for username & pass.... Personally, I prefer the prompt.

Re: Password request everytime I reboot my PC

I never said he was not correct.  But if his password and login are not the same on both devices, this is the solution.

Re: Password request everytime I reboot my PC

Just to add a question to this - what if one of the computer accessing the home DNS is actually part of a domain at work, hence logins are always domain/username not just username, I've had lots of troubles with logins and had to use BQ041's ideas as an only solution, and to great effect. It is just the usernames are not always able to be equal.

Unless you can think of a solution to that? (be great if there was smile)

Happy to try anything

Cheers

Re: Password request everytime I reboot my PC

@fordem
No, different username and password. Does this means that I will need to create one user name for each of the accounts on my family PC for them to be able to automatically login to the NAS? Any workaround for this?

@bq041
Yes, I have already done it, clicking on the Use different name in accessing...

Re: Password request everytime I reboot my PC

No, you can use the connect as different user on each of the accounts and use the same username and pssword in each.

Re: Password request everytime I reboot my PC

@hastings69

As far as I know bq041's method is the only way around the domain/workgroup move - however - it's much more than just a simple matching user name & password (or a non-matching user name & password) - the domain controller (DC) is the repository for ALL network security, and the laptop will attempt to contact the DC before allowing access to any "non-local" resource.

@Sinobato - bq041 has already given you the work around - but what you're looking at is the 'raison d'etre' of single sign on and domain style security - if you want to control access using passwords, then you need a username & password for every device on which you wish to control access.

As your network grows, this can be come quite confusing since the number of username and password combinations grows exponentially.

In your case - it sounds like you wish to have control on the PC, but to allow open access on the DNS-323 - which is easier done by not creating any users (at all) on the DNS-323, in which case it will never prompt for a password.
