Not sure what I am doing wrong, shares show up on my Ubuntu compute but they dont show up on a windows machine.
Is there a setting I should look at, maybe I have over looked something.
I am using the RPI OMV version 1.0.29

Windows firewall issue. Check if you can mount the shares as network drive in Windows first.
I restarted the router looked into the firewall etc and now (not sure why) it shows the server.
But back to an old problem, I have 2 shares rich1 and documents1, I can map either one on a windows 8.1 computer, but not both?
After the first share is mapped, and I try to mount the second one, it asks for a user name and password, nothing I type in is acceptable?
I heard your group is working on a guide, which is great.
What I want to build is a server with a few shares available to everyone and a share for each person.
I would be great if we had a step by step guide for this setup, I suspect a lot of people might want to use this kind of a setup.
Just a thought, I know this is a lot of work for someone.

check for that second shared folder in the privileges section if the user is being authorized.
Ok I will check, not at my home location right now.
What I was saying is either share can be mapped but not both at the same time.
IE I can mount rich1 but can't mount documents1, but if I unmount rich1 then I can mount documents1
Seems like it will only let me mount one share at a time.
I do remember having this problem prior to version 1.0.9 RPI.

I have not being able to replicate this at win7, also i don't have win8 to test it.
You could try this at samba general extra options to see if it makes a difference.
max smbd processes = 20
try this:
Problems upgrading to 1.0 from 0.5.57
reboot your server and give it some time to refresh
I re-installed OMV 1.0.9 and can make 2 shares on the windows 8.1 computer.
Went up and tried making shares on my Wife's windows 7 computer and can make at least 4 shares, probably more but only had made 4 shares in OMV.
So sounds like it is a windows 8 problem, any suggestions, fire wall, etc??
Yes rebooted the RPI many times.

Someone suggested to me yesterday at IRC that in win8 might have a problem mounting shares with two different credentials. But from what you describe you're trying to mount with same credentials. Can't find any info regarding that in google yet.
did you tried the max smbd process suggestion i gave you?
I don't believe that changing the max smbd settings makes any difference, but why not. His wife's W7 PC can mount four shares at a time, so the OMV standard settings should work. Actually I have eight shares mounted at a time on my W8.1 PC without changing anything and I can mount shares residing on two different OMV machines at the same time.
Rich, do you have IPV6 enabled on the OMV box? If not, have a look at your Win8 PC network settings and try to disable IPV6 on the Windows side. Can you see every share of the OMV box in the network neighbourhood?
No the IPV 6 shows nothing in OMV, have to go down stairs and crank up the windows 8 computer to look at the network settings.
But i am pretty sure IPV 6 is blank.
Yes I can see all the shares just cant map them, or open them in the network list.
After mounting one, it keeps asking for a name and password, none will work.

ps I have now mapped 6 shares in windows 7 and can read/write to them.
Actually I have eight shares mounted at a time on my W8.1
will a win 8 different edition make a difference? I don't have a single win8 machine to test
I only have one computer with windows 8.1 on it.
I would have to take my server to someone's house.
The RaspberryPi is small enough to do this, just need someone to agree to it.
I was hoping someone will see this that had the problem and knows how to fix it.
Searched Google but no luck yet.

Does blank mean that the IPV6 checkbox in the network settings of your network interface is blank? If not, disable it by unchecking the box.

Which W8.1 edition?
will a win 8 different edition make a difference? I don't have a single win8 machine to test
To be honest: I don't know. I only use W8.1 Pro and have never dealt with 8.0 and standard or RT editions. In earlier home or basic editions like W7 did the number of networks connections was restricted. Will have a look at MSDN.
I am using windows 8.1 pro on my laptop and have had not issues connecting to smb/cifs shares.
I updated to ver 1.0.31 and I now see my server listed, not sure why but it is working.

And the network drive mount limit?
When I first image my microSD card with OMV 1.17 the server will not show up on any of my computers unless i enable ipv6. Why wont it show up on ipv4?
I can access OMV shares from Windows by directly connecting, but the server and the folders do not "show up" in Windows Explorer. Is that expected behavior, and is there a guide to walk through that process?
There are several causes I've seen for this.
Could be the nmbd samba process not running (rare)
Windows computer not in the same workgroup (Common)
Another samba server running in the local network (common in some cases using kodi with openelec, libreelec, etc)
Some firewall/av in the windows client side.
