If your server gets its IP via DHCP (it shouldn't) you only need: 127.0.0.1 localhost If it has a fixed IP (as it should) you need: 127.0.0.1 localhost 192.168.0.10 server.acme.tld server Where '192.168.0.10' is the ipaddress of the server and 'server.acme.tld' is the FQDN of the server Rowland

So until the misunderstand or bug > gets fixed ...127.0.0.1 is the loopback address and should only point to localhost, your computer will also have its own ipaddress and this should point to the computers FQDN. If this doesn't work for you, then there is something wrong with your setup, it is not a Samba problem. Rowland

It seems you can enable ssh, you could then login and set /etc/hosts Slow connection problems appear frequently on this list and mostly it turns out to be a NAS problem, not a Samba one. Anything that claims to be a server should use a fixed ip, your NAS out of the box uses DHCP. Rowland

True : out-of-the-box my ReadyNAS had a IP address provided by DHCP ... ... but I changed it for a fixed IP address (192.168.0.10) I will try connect to ReadyNAS by ssh On Mon, Dec 5, 2016 at 2:47 PM, Rowland Penny via samba < samba at lists.samba.org> wrote:> On Mon, 5 Dec 2016 14:16:14 +0100 > Bernard Chabot <babonet13 at gmail.com> wrote: > > > Hi Rowland & ToodAndMargo, > > Thnaks for your input. > > Saddky, on the server side this is not a "classical" Linux machine, > > but a NAS (a Netgear ReadyNAS : > > It is a 'classic' Linux machine (it runs a variant of debian), netgear > just hides this.
