I have an unRaid server at home that I also have hosting a LogMeIn Hamachi VPN. I've been able to access all the various subfolders on my server from my OSX laptop while at work (or just remotely in general), but I'm having issues doing the same with my Windows 7 desktop machine (also at work).

I can access the majority of the folders on the server, but for some reason random folders are not accessible. I get the message "Windows cannot access \\MEDIASERVER\Documents\My Documents\Random_Folder"

Oddly enough this only seems to be the case with the Documents user share (I can also see the "TV Shows" and "Movies" shares that are on my server, but I only have the Documents share mounted since I'm using it as a remote backup & sync across all my machines). There are no differences about the security settings for the different shares, so I assume this is something on the Windows side.

I have no issue accessing these folders on my two Windows 7 machines at home (which are on the LAN).

I'm sure more information is needed to help me troubleshoot this so let me know what to provide.

thanks

    • FWIW this whole 'universal printer driver' challenge has been around since the 1990's! Back in the day it was ADOBE that held the mantle via their portable document format (PDF) which provided the most fidelity between your-layout and your-printer's-capabilities. By the 2000s, Microsoft went with XML-defined formats -- namely XPS. Alongside the [possibly transient] format, and combined with USB standards, the document driver models were evolving. A new generation of hardware adopting different/outdated security models prevented Microsoft from 'forcing' the industry to utilize a single 'Universal' printer driver. Every major OS generation (and obsolescence of older hardware/vendors) moved the needle further along... until 3D Printers (esp. by mid-2010s) changed the maths again! While standard documents had attained sufficient compatibility across OS + printer scenarios (and the slow death of Fax support), there were two major shakers to the hopeful calm: open 3d model formats, and subscription-based printer resourcing (HP and Epson are mostly guilty here). With a sense of calm in the printing industries (whatever is left), there's hope for another push for standardized printer hardware drivers... until another printer hardware trend wrecks havoc and custom drivers become requirements...
    • Can you tell me what the difference between the Moto G and the Moto G Stylus is? They look similar.
