Not getting share to work (SMB)

[SecCon]

This is a test setup subject to changes and no data can be compromised.
I am struggling with Shares. SMB.
I have:

1. three 4Tb disks (10TB)
2. a pool called fsa-homered-conram
3. a dataset called fsa-homered-conram
4. an SMB share (to test with, want an NFS once I figure this out) called fsa-homered-conram mapped to folder /mnt/fsa-homered-conram/fs
5. A guest usr with pwd guest added to group wheel.
6. Locked the share to an IP (10.1.1.184)
7. Made sure the workgroup is defined and correct
8. Set a netbios name, that does not seem to make any difference whatsoever.

I am unable to logon to the SMB from W10. Tried with both guest and root.

I have

• reviewed all available guides in Resources and fond nothing relevant
• checked user rights for account guest
• checked and rechecked paths and settings

Running 11.2, I can access interface fine, browse settings fine SMART is ok, etc....

Any step-by-step guide for current version somewhere... ?

On that dataset have you configured windows acl or unix?
Cif not change to windows under storage>dataset.
Also there is a checkbox set default permisions on dtaset properties.

In case anyone might suggest my windows clients are running the wrong SMB version I would like to add that my ASUSTOR NAS runs SMB 3 and has for years with no conn issues.

As I understand you are not using multiple users. If you check “use as home share” that makes that dataset to host multiple users personal folders but still you have to define them under each user as home path.
Just unclick that and click once more “apply default permisions”.
Also you might want to make it browsable to not enter manualy to windows clients full address.
Guest you can remove since you are using a defined user member if wheel.

Changes done as requested.
Yes, home is of course not needed due to guest, my bad.
Default permissions verified.

Would you elaborate on "Also you might want to make it browsable to not enter manualy to windows clients full address." ? If I have Netbios to "freenas" is that not the same effect?

- Able to map as drive, testing files... some 35GB... (80-90Mbit/s, spindrives, mixed files)
- Able to run movies, sheets, docs, images... seems like faster file management as well compared to my Windows FileShare :)

Now, to review this in the correct order.

wtf netdata?

I guess I need to do som configuration of that... but it landed in my mail, so that works... surprise! :)

Browsable to network clients it makes difference when you enter \\fn-netbios\ on the windows client you wil not see that share and you will have to appennd the name of share also on the adress bar to access.

If no homedirs are defined, why do a folder called /guest keep popping up with content related to login and profile settings... I'll make a screenshot next time. Deletion of that folder does not seem to affect functionality.
