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.

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. -
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.

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 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.

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

Thank you for the guide, no I was unaware there was a guide.
Thank you for the info.

Not sure what to type at the command prompt, tried OMV-extras and that didn't work.
Tried OMV-extras.org plugin didnt work either.
What is the syntax for installing the extras
Rich Prim -
Thank you, I will install the "extras".
Rich Prim -
Ok, thanks subzero79

Installed OMV version 1 on a Pemtium 4 HT, patitioned the drive for both the OS and storage.
All worked well, but I dont have miniDLNA in the plugin list,
How could I add it, miniDLNA was available on my RPI version.
Rich Prim -
Thank you.
Will wait for the next major release.
Great piece of software.

Yes the RaspberryPi and a 750 gig USB hard drive draws 18 watts active.
When the hard drive (3.5") shuts down, the power consumption (RaspberryPi and USB hard drive) draw 6 watts.
Nice low power home file server.

Gentlemen
Thank you for the info.
No I did the partition first, which now appers to be wrong.
I will follow your instructions and use gparted to adjust the partitions after I install openmediavault.
Thank you Rich Prim -
Can anyone tell me how to partition a SATA drive so I can use it for the OS and a second partiton for Storage.
I tried using Gparted and made 2 EXT 4 partions but OMV didn't seem to like that and didn't list a partition I could use for storage.Rich Prim

I was doing it backwards, I made the SMB shares before I did the Share folders.
Thanks again, Rich Prim -
Thank you for a quick reply.
Looking forward to the guide, I realize this is a bit of work.
I have it working with both open and password protected shares for myself wife etc.
Just so many options, not sure if I needed any of them or not.
Again a awesome piece of software.

Gentlemen
As I had, I am sure many people are a bit confused about the many options in the Share setup and Shares setup.
What I think would be a good idea is a Written explanation of the many boxes to click on in the Share setup.
A brief explanation of when you should click on these options would be a great help.
I realize this is a bit of work, but it would help a lot of use new comers.
Open Media Vault is a great piece of software.
I am running the RPI version (RaspberryPi) for users that are not familiar with this tiny computer.
My RaspberryPi and USB drive draw 18 watts when active, when the USB drive shuts down, it draws 6 watts,
A great low cost file server system.

Thank you Subzero79

Ok I guess RaspberryPi does not support it, just was curious when it said Fatal fault.
