django_alexander · May 1

This is updated version for smb.conf [global]; I highlighted what is important for the operation of the shares

[global]
workgroup = YourWorkgroupName
domain master = no
local master = no
preferred master = yes
os level = 100
server string = NSA325
netbios name = NSA
dos charset = UTF8
display charset = UTF8
unix charset = UTF8
security = user
encrypt passwords = yes
smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd
guest account = pc-guest
map to guest = Bad User
write ok = yes
force create mode = 777
force directory mode = 777
force security mode = 777
force directory security mode = 777
auth methods = guest sam_ignoredomain
max log size = 50
host msdfs = yes

kernel oplocks = no
socket options = IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY SO_SNDBUF=131072 SO_RCVBUF=131072
use mmap = yes
max xmit = 131072
min receivefile size = 128k

use sendfile = yes
passdb backend = smbpasswd
veto files = /.grive*/

; End of File

PS. To access the network from Windows XP PRO without problems, check in Services that you have the "lan man" service disabled or manual and that you have the NT LM service, (Started) Auto or something similar. Win XP pro support only SMB V1; if you don't have old devices with outdated operating systems on your network, you can force samba on the Zyxel NAS to work exclusively with SMB V2, but if you have XP, it doesn't support SMB v2.

And if you want to use Network Discovery in Windows 10 you must use this in smb.conf:

local master = no

preferred master = no
os level = 20

IF NSA Become Master Browser … By by Network Discovery :)

And in windows 10 secpol.msc i selected:

Send NTLMv2 response only. Refuse LM &NTLM

Hi All

I am so alien to what you are talking about and how to install this update on both my NAS325v2 and NAS542.

Could someone point me in the direction of a dummy step-by-step instructions on how to do what's needed from start to finish?

I did do some looking into it all and came across an app called Putty, which i managed to use to connect to my NAS542. But after that, I was lost on how to start the update. Was PuTTY the right app to use?

So sorry to be a pain about this

Neither the zyxel.diskstation.eu nor the metarepo.tk domains appear to be operating currently.

Is this temporary or are they no longer available?

Mijzelf · November 30

Don't know. I pinged the administrator of that website, but he hasn't answered yet.

Mijzelf · December 10

@Techlobo : That administrator didn't answer, and the websites didn't come back. So maybe he lost his interest, or worse.

I have an old backup, which I put here: http://mijzelf.duckdns.org/zyxel/zypkg-repo/. It is old, and I don't know what changed in the mean time. But it can't be much.

Hey there,

I finished the zyxel-samba-replacement and everything seems to work fine. I removed the legacy smb 1 feature in Windows 11 and my NSA325v2 is still reachable, but "smbstatus -V" gives me "Version 3.5.6". Can this be true? Shouldn't it be "3.6.25" from now?

Mijzelf · December 19

If you use the right version of smbstatus. This is the firmware one. So try /opt/bin/smbstatus
