Host allowed access not working for host on different subnet

Postby neutrino » Tue Apr 17, 2012 6:48 pm

Hi,

Might be a simple problem. I have a PC on a different subnet than the Readynas but on the same physical network. They can ping each other and if I put the host on the same subnet then the "host allowed access" feature works fine. However when I put my host on the differing subnet then the feature does not work and I'm constantly promted for an user ID and pass word. So here is a summary of the scenarios:

    (Host NAS on same subnet) Readynas IP 10.1.10.20 - host 10.1.10.21 with host allowed access = 10.1.10.21 ==> You can open share folders and access share subfolders. everything works.
    (Host NAS on different subnets) Readynas IP 10.1.10.20 - host 75.111.20.145 with host allowed access = 75.111.20.145 ==> You can open readynas share list and see shares, but when accessed prompted for a user ID and password.

So how can I keep my host on the other subnet and give it access via it's IP but not have to get prompted for a user account all the time. The host in question is on a different IP because its a static public IP to the internet. The NAS is on the internal LAN. The two networks can share data with one another via shares.

Thanks for the assistance.

I can connect across subnets to my Pro without getting a user id/password prompt.

The last time I did this my PC was behind a router I was testing, the Pro was on the other side of it. This was with Windows 7, and the NAS credentials are configured with Win7 credential manager.

So I think what you're saying is that you did have the same problem but you worked around it by setting up the user ID and password needed within Win7 credential manager. Correct?

No. I set up the NAS user ID and password in the credential manager because it doesn't match windows logon.

I don't have the problem, and I gave you the config information that I happen to use.
