[QUOTE="JimCatMP, post: 1048459, member: 103549"] I'm posting this as a possible rather than a bug as given nature of problem I would expect it to be already posted and it's sufficiently fundamental to make me think it's my system and not MP2. Setup. Win7 Pro, client & server on same unit, all pre-req's met. Into setup, and set up shares. Finds shares on the network [not a big network, not lightening fast either, this takes around 70 seconds]. List shares, and my media store is on BNAS - a Freecom DualDrive nas unit [nice and simple]. Problem - MP2 will NOT expand the share list on that unit [pressing +]. It would happily accept the whole unit as a path, but refuses to expand the share. It will expand shares on other Windows7 units [as shown in screen shot]. [ATTACH=full]141159[/ATTACH] The BNAS itself, from network view on PC. [ATTACH=full]141160[/ATTACH] I've tired unmapping the BNAS drives [Disk1 & Disk_2 - mapped so I can access content via Cygwin]: changing the Server config setting for authentication [de-selecting Use Credentials {access IS anonymous} in Network credential {this removed ALL resource providers}; and setting user & passwords TOO anonymous. Log files for client & Server [don't show me anything I would consider relevant, but..........] I have run earlier versions of MP2 on this hardware, but as recently had to re-install Win 7 [RIP C:], AND have installed VMBox on platform [not running in virtual and virtual services are stopped], other network elements unchanged however. Overall, some oddness in Windows networking is my assumption that MP2 is 'unhappy' with. Cheers - JCMP [/QUOTE]
