NAS drive not accessible - Samba issue in W7?
Hi,Ive Googled this and there seems to be lots of info but no resolution that I can find. I have a Buffalo NAS drive which I can see in Explorer but cant access - I keep getting an error code 1208. I am using the standard W7 Home Professional security and Microsoft Security Essentials. Ive rung Buffalo and they have indicated its a Samba issue with Windows 7.Is there any resolution to this issue yet (without requiring a Registry hack)?The drive is accessible on my Vista machine.

Hi, In Windows 7, please try the following: 1. Open Registry Editor, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\ 2. Create LMCompatibilityLevel (DWord) and set the value to 1 For more information, please also refer to: LmCompatibilityLevel If the issue persists, since the issue is related to a specific device, it is also recommended that you contact Buffalo for further investigation.
