    That doesn't use Samba/Nfs

    Does Windows_Explorer/Network see anything? If not type \\box_ip_address in the box to the left of search_network , and then try network_browser on ViX again.

    Ok tried laptop search which lists all network connections and et10000 and others are listed,clicking on the zero can access box but clicking on et does not enter and says a network error.Went into network and restarted network connections and ran a new scan still not seen.

    Network error code 0x80070035
    the network path not found.

    Typing in box ip/address/harddrive/ i get a windows error 404 in using browser.

    Well yes. That's never going to work in a web browser.
    I wanted you to try:
    Code:
    \\192.168.1.42\Harddisk\
    in a file explorer window.

    Open up CMD
    Type telnet IP address of box
    To change password type passed

    You might need to enable telnet or download a telnet app

    are you playing with us ? Quote : No pc or laptop used just e2 boxes to access hdd on et10000. Dispite even if samba or NFS is not active can you see the box in your router ? Think you have a router between boxes or simply a switch

    PS ::maybe explain just how everything is connected and installed included ip adresses

    I have a pc and laptop but only used with a connection to box.I dont use pc or laptop to view recordings on them as just access them from other boxes like i did before.

    Virgin router and unable to log into router until i find password upstairs -bad memory.
    4 ports with cables going to multiple rooms with multiple switches.

    Boxes all have lan cables and hard wired with DHCP used for the last 10 years and all have gateway and mac address.

    If i search for recordings on this box from my zgemma from its mount Harddisk Et10000 it does not exist.

    Never had an issue with an invisible box not showing up on its own search?

    Hence why it might be a bug as i think all bases are covered.

    Previous images had no issues with its footprint and box is on recording mode now.

    Yes might have to go back 2 years as i think all avenues have been checked and not using the last one that was corrupted.

    Difficult to say, my ET10K works as expected using Samba. (Did you check that Samba was running, I've noticed it sometimes is in the "stopped" state for some unknown reason.)

    My ET10k has always been updated (every release) by couch flash and a settings restore. The last build from scratch was when it was mandatory - 4. something.

    Have you changed the Workgroup at some time, the default "WORKGROUP" ?
