Emby and SMB

Post by luismartin »

This is a problem that is driving me crazy.
Access from SMB works fine until I install Emby Server but after installed, SMB access asks me for a username and password (with the correct user and no special characters in the password) but says that the login is incorrect.
To rule out that it is not a Windows problem from my main PC, I connect to SMB from another PC and the same thing happens.
The only solution to recover access to SMB is from TOS, do a "Reset system configuration", after this SMB works fine until I activate Emby Server and I cannot access SMB again.
Even if I uninstall Emby Server I still cannot access SMB until I do another "Reset system configuration".
Any idea why this happens or has this problem been reported or how to delete and update the credentials used by SMB from TOS console?

Current TOS version
6.0.648
BIOS/initBoot version
5.13

Thanks in advance

The username 'emby' conflicts with the app because it is also used by the Emby app. It is recommended that you rename it and reinstall Emby to restore normal usage.
