Unraid server not showing up on Windows 7 Network Places, but can access via UNC
rukiddin:
I realize that, and that's how I have it working, however I would call that a band-aid. Something isn't right with the SMB configuration. Again, both my Macs and my PC's are unable to see the UNRAID server unless I tell them where to go look.
I have 3 other NAS drives, and they show up just fine. There must be a simple configuration setting that isn't set right.

I am sure you have already checked this on your MAC, but just incase look in finder preferences in the side bar tab and ensure connected servers is checked
rukiddin:
Thanks, but all that does is show your connected servers on your desktop. That's not the issue here. Once the server is connected it's fine. The issue is that the Mac and Windows machines don't see the server. In Mac OS X, on the left bar of a finder window under "SHARED" you will see servers even if you aren't connected to them. All my other NAS drives and servers show up fine, only the UNRAID server does not. The same is happening under Windows 7. There is a configuration error on the UNRAID server that is not allowing it to broadcast it's existence to the network (probably via NETBIOS)
burtjr:
That is strange, I have a setup similar to yours with macs and windows boxes and they were ready to go when I setup my unRAID box. Possible it's a firewall issue, since it's not a network display issue?
rukiddin:
If it were a firewall issue, why would my other NAS drives show up just fine?
