The QTS interface logs me out every few hours. When I log in I tick the “keep me logged in” box on the login page and I’ve unticked the Autologout option in personal settings but still I get logged out after about an hour’s inactivity.
See if what helped? If you mean unticking the auto log out then that’s why I posted here in the first place. I unticked it years ago. As I said in my OP - it makes no difference. Auto log out is unticked and the NAS logs me out after a couple of hours of inactivity. I was logged in when you posted your first reply cos I had to check the name of the box I had unticked. As I write this, I’m logged out.
Curious why you would need to stay logged in. Maybe there is another way to get whatever information you are accessing? Personally, I rarely access the GUI, you obviously have a different need.
I have to use the web interface because when I move or copy files from my Mac to the NAS the Finder app writes hidden files to the NAS which make the transferred files unuseable. The files are invisible to Finder and so I have to use the web ui to either do the transfers in the first place or to delete the hidden files so that the Finder transfers can complete.
Interesting. I’m not a Mac guy, but it sounds like something I’d want to avoid. Not sure on the Mac side, but can you bypass the utilities altogether and just map a location using samba?
