Unraid server not showing up on Windows 7 Network Places, but can access via UNC

(1/6) > >>

Mysteriouskk:
I have an unraid server that is connected to the network. I can access it by typing in Tower in IE, but it's not showing up in network places. Any suggestions?

BRiT:
Make sure you have the WORKGROUP setting setup properly.

I'm not sure the same is said for you but i also have win 7 and once i map the drive i was able to see it and access it in network place.

I'm having the same problem.  I can access the UNRAID by specifying it's name and then mapping drives to it, however, my UNRAID server (which is called UNRAID), doesn't show up in the network places in either Windows 7, or on my Mac systems (which are usually less picky).

A previous response said, make sure the workgroup settings are correct.  There isn't a whole lot to do there.  You've got the workgroup name, which in my case is just WORKGROUP, I've changed it to all upper case to match what my WINDOWS 7 machine says.  And you've got the ability to set it as a LOCAL MASTER.  I've tried both enabling and disabling this feature.  It doesn't appear to make a difference.  This is a brand new CLEAN install of UNRAID Server version 4.6.  I had the same problem with version 4.5.6.

If someone could shed some light on this I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thanks

Mike

I have always found it to be hit and miss with the unRAID server showing up "magically" in the Finder sidebar, or on a Windows machine even.

If your in a finder window you can hit command+K and type in the path to the the server (should be smb://UNRAID/name of share)
