And the root folders have the names of the shares? Strange. I'd say that the volume is mounted correctly, then, but the default permissions for the root directories is full access for everybody. So if you can see them, you should be able to open them.

When I try and access the folders in Ubuntu the first ones are there it says I dont have access to the deeper folders and files.What do you mean by 'first ones'? Are that the directories which were visible as shares on the NAS?

Well, I don't know what to say. The package manager looks for a file admin/zy-pkgs/web_prefix. If it exists, it will use the content as, well, a webprefix to exchange ftp://ftp2.zyxel.com/ . It will not check if there are files which have a similar name, or an extension. If Windows Explorer says web_prefix is a text…

Disabling it is not an easy task. A script has to be changed on each boot. That is not persistent, because the file is stored in readonly flash, and copied to a ramdrive on boot. But if you can block your NAS from accessing ftp2.zyxel.com on port 21, that will also work. That will also block accessing the package…

You are aware that Web_Prefix should be web_prefix? The NAS' filesystem is case sensitive. Anyway, if the nas behaves different with your web_prefix file on duty, it's name is spelled right. In that case the content is wrong (should be http://zyxel.diskstation.eu/Users/Mijzelf/zypkg-repo/ with a linux line ending. 54 bytes…

Yes the NAS and the client are on different networks but use the same (192.168.1.0/24) networkThat can be a problem. In active mode the FTP server opens a port, and tells the client to connect to IP/port. As the server is in a private network, and doesn't know it's public address, it will use it's private address. Most,…

I don't know Cobian. Does it provide logs? Is it possible that the NAS and the Cobian client are in different networks using the same subnet?

Did you set the data ports on the NAS to 5001-5004?

Which URL, and which error message?

OK, found it. For some reason the new server does unix<>dos translation when using ftp. And so the ZYPKGS were screwed up. It should work now. If it still doesn't, remove the contents of \\<nas>\admin\zy-pkgs\MetaRepository\ and retry.

I think your 'requests' file is not OK. It should contain GET /NSA320S/4.70/zypkg/ZYPKG_INFO.tgz HTTP/1.0followed by 2 empty lines. The output you posted is the 'catch all' page, which is the webinterface page. So it didn't generate a new logfile. Instead you should have seen gibberish, the content of ZYPKG_INFO.tgz…

Is somehow the firewall status of your local network in Windows changed from private network to public network?

Is the NAS only not visible, or is it also not reachable. Does entering \\<nas-ip>\ in the address bar of explorer work?

The 'Tweaks' package has a function to disable that installation. To install tweaks first install MetaRepository. http://zyxel.diskstation.eu/Users/Mijzelf/zypkg-repo/
