MAP NAS Drives on Windows 11

Windows updates, like 24H2, can negatively affect existing NAS installations. The last update on my Windows 11 PC disconnected mapped drives after performing a reboot. The instructions posted earlier worked for the first NAS but when a second NAS was added, it did not work correctly responding with ...

Synology NAS Drive Lights Blinking Continuously

Drive lights on a Synology NAS normally blink green at different rates indicating a disk drive is reading and/or writing data. Various tasks, running in the background, such as indexing images, videos, audio files, universal search and raid scrubbing cause the lights to blink, often for a few days ...

Re: Install TNG on a Synology NAS

Under normal circumstances you should not expose phpMyAdmin and use Synology DSM to open phpMyAdmin.

That said, the reason you cannot connect using synology.me is your website uses synology.me which points to the web folder. The problem is phpMyAdmin and docker are located in the web_packages ...

Re: Install TNG on a Synology NAS

I'm not sure I understand the problem.
Can you open phpMyAdmin from Synology DSM or are you trying to load phpMyAdmin, over the internet (WAN)?

Depending on how you are trying to connect to phpMyAdmin, you may need to forward a port on your router.
I only use phpMyAdmin on a local LAN connection ...

Re: Install TNG on a Synology NAS

I updated the instructions for the database connection and permissions. If you are using a domain from Synology you will be not able to connect using the database socket as that connection only works locally and not over a DDNS host connection. Once you enable TCP/IP on MariaDB and permit access ...

Re: Install TNG on a Synology NAS

The instructions recommend using a Unix socket for added security. This requires a direct local domain connection so you cannot use the socket with a DDNS host such as Synology.me. I will update the instructions this week to add more information about this as well as updating the permission settings ...

Re: TNG Scroll Mod

Great, glad you have it working. I must confess making the mod more secure was easy. Getting the buttons to look right was a challenge as I had not used images with data action buttons. In the past I always used onclick input type buttons with images which is easy to code.

To explain a bit, data ...

Re: TNG Scroll Mod

Sorry you experienced an issue with v15.0.0.2. Although the potential for XSS (cross-site scripting) was very low, the mod was updated to remove using HTML onclick with a script. So instead of using input with onclick it uses button with data-action which is more secure.

I too am using FireFox 147 ...

MAP NAS Drives on Windows 11 using ESET Permissions

Windows updates, like 24H2, can negatively affect existing NAS installations. The last update on my Windows 11 PC disconnected mapped drives after performing a reboot. I tried many online posts with Windows Registry Editor instructions to reconnect the drives but they did not work. Windows could ...
