The QTS Storage Manager is awesome and provides all these features in one centralized location. We made a storage setup during our initialization, but we might want to check up on that, the drives in general, or change and add some things in this regards. Passwords and email accounts can also be changed here.Īnd last but not least, you get a whole list of available options for QTS itself, such as auto-logout timers and which parts to show and hide. You can also enable 2-step verification, but that requires a mobile device capable of running an authenticator app. The user interface isn’t just for the administrator, other users with fewer rights can use it quite a bit too and each user has quite a bit of customizability when it comes to both their account and how the interface looks.įor example, you can change the wallpaper to one of the five included ones or upload your own custom image. And there are plenty of them to play with on this QNAP TS-453A.

#Qfinder ubuntu update
Now that we have the update out of the way, we get to see the normal welcome message where we can take a little guide through QNAP’s QTS operating system and its features.Īll done, time to play with the settings and features. The system will now make all the changes according to the settings you just made and get the system ready.Īfter the setup is done, you can log into the actual user interface where you most likely will be greeted with a prompt whether you want to update to the latest version. We get a final view on our settings and the ability to change things we might have done wrong or changed our mind about. I need to go through all setup scenarios for my benchmarks anyway, so I might as well create one right away.Īnd that was the initialization. We get the choice whether we want to configure our installed hard disk drives right now or whether we want to do it later on. We also get to choose what network protocols should be enabled and whether we just pick one of the three or all of them, that is down to personal needs and usage scenarios. You get a lot more network options later on. The network connection most likely already is as you want it, but you can change that too. You can set the time zone and specify whether to automatic update the time and date via NTP servers or you can set it manually. The date and time settings are similar to those you find on any device these days.
#Qfinder ubuntu password
We need to give the NAS a name and set the admin password next. I picked business use as I prefer to stay in control of what and when. The only difference is what default packages will be installed and you can always add the missing features later on. The first choice you’ll have to make is whether you want to initialize it for home use or business use. When launched, the Qfinder will scan your network and attempt to find uninitialized devices and if found, prompt you whether you want to set them up now.Īgreeing to initialize the NAS will open your default browser and guide you through it.
#Qfinder ubuntu pro
There are multiple ways to initialize your new QNAP NAS, but my preferred method is through the QNAP Qfinder Pro tool that also can be used for a lot more than just initializing your new NAS. I abandoned Ubuntu a few years ago, due to that horrible Unity Desktop, but I am still a Linux user to this day, I simply run a Debian derivative w/ Gnome desktop these days.Setup – Initialization, Storage, and External
#Qfinder ubuntu windows
I am not a Wine fan, (I prefer native Linux Apps) so I have never attempted running the Windows version. I complained to QNAP for years about the lack of a QFinder app for Linux, and they finally provided one last year. (They won't fix anything if no one complains). Please complain directly to QNAP about this. You'd think they could write a Linux QSync "client" for us. The QSync "server" on the NAS is Linux software. Tried the same credentials on my friend's Windows machine, it works well.Īny solution ? (And also, how can I obtain the older versions of Qsync to test?) But on browser-side: Qnap-> System Settings ->System Logs -> System Connection Logs user seems like "Login OK". The problem is, when I try to connect NAS with Qsync over Wine, I see my NAS and select it, enter username and password, it gives "Login Failure" error on Qsync screen.

wine.html), but that could not worked for the latest version of Qsync. I have searched internet for a solution and found some guys were running Qsync over Wine (. I think it is still in development progress.

On the product box It says "Share data accross Windows, MacOS and Linux Platforms" but I could not find any installation file for Qsync Linux client.

We would like to use it as a replacement of Dropbox at work, and all users have Linux as primary OS. Yesterday we have bought Qnap TS212-P for my company.
