samba share across multiple PC's

#1 Post by rac8006 »

I have a DLink DNS323 which uses smb1. This device is currently mapped as T: and U; on my windows 10 Pro pc and laptop. I also have a WD My Cloud gen1 single disk using smb3 I think. I also have a PC running Debian Linux 12.5. I want to copy all of the files from the DLink device to the WD device. After copying all of the files. I unmapped the T: and U; shares of the DLink device and mapped T: and U: from the WD device. After the mapping I checked some of the folders and found that only the top level files and folders were visible. Every folder was empty. After a log of fiddling I got most of the folders to show files. Not sure what I finally did to get this almost working. So I tried to mount the WD device to the Linux PC and got the same problem of the folders being empty.
My question is what do I need to do the be able to mount the WD device on the windows PC and the Linux PC with all files available. I want to use the Linux PC as backup for the WD device and use the WD device as backup for some files from the Linux PC.
