The Nas is just a single disk basic unit, the OS on the nas is Linux
based but locked so I have very little control over it. I have two
area's (folders I guess) where I can save my stuff, one folder is called
openshare which by its name is open to anybody to read - write to and
the other folders (who name I can't remember) is password protected and
is meant for private stuff. I don't use this private 'folder' I just use
the openshare folder.
I have a Linux based NAS and I have had problems accessing it from Linux boxes
in the past.
What I want is the nas to be available to my entire network with read
and write access to all (windows and Linux PC). It seem the Linux PC
have the biggest problem, I can normally get the nas to read and write
but my wife can only read from her PC (both Linux). I can't always get
it to mount at boot time 9A line in the fstab file using cifs) and have
to mount via the cli
You don't say which distro, but I assume from your other post that it might be
Ubuntu. I fixed my problems using this page:

Cheers Terry, yes the distro is xubuntu 12:10 (upgraded from 12:04), I
have had a quick look at the link, only 136 pages!!!!
I have wondered if nfs would be a better option but I think the fact
that I can't change the permission of the files under the nas os might
be a problem (which I guess is the same problem here anyway)
