What is this window?

My Cloud OS 3 Personal & Network Attached Storage My Cloud DL Series

Im trying to map the drive to windows. I have done two correctly but now it is impossible to get third one. 

What is this window? What does it want?

Windows Admin is not right one.

WD admin is not right.

User to that share is not right.

So what does it want?

This windows comes right after im trying to map the drive. I have give the place, and user name and password. Then this windows comes. No idea what should i place here… I have tried “Connect differend credintials” and without it. Same thing happens all the time. Why am i able to map two places but this third one is impossible?

yea, that last one I do not really have figured out.  A reboot of the client should give you a fresh start.

Either the Admin account or a user account (Of the DL, not the local PC)should work  but you may need to precede it with the computer name

Password

What may work even beter is press the windows key and type “credential”, then go to windows credential manager and add one for the DL

That’s because something within Windows has alreay authenticated itself to the NAS and I think Windows has been granted access on the NAS as a guest.   Once the OS has had been allowed access to the NAS using other credentials you won’t be allowed secondary authenticate. The GUI message is misleading. When you use NET USE then you get a more meangful message.

This can happen oif the computer access a share that is public first.

Try something. On all your shares on your NAS, disable public access all all of them, reboot the computer and try again.

See what happpens.

all the shares are not public. You can only access to them with the username and the password.

For a some reason i cannot map shares from the same windows account to two different users shares in dl2100. Example: UserX and UserY - they each have their own shares in DL2100. If i mapped the share of UserX as a nas drive in windows, i cant map the other share (UserY with his username and password) in windows. I can only map the UserY’s share when im logged to another win account. (Ä

As @Myron correctly said, you can only access the NAS using one set of credentials. You cannot have one share with access via UserX and a second with access via UserY on the same PC. The last message appears when you try to do that, UserY basically cannot log in as UserX is already logged in from the same place.

You either need to use a different computer to access UserY’s share, or log UserX out first.

This of course does not apply to Public shares, which can be accessed in parallel as they need no credentials to log into.
