Re: still waiting or?

Works perfectly here too.
I just can't backup on a USB HDD attached to WD MBW anymore... Do you have a solution for this?

Thanks

Re: still waiting or?

LEGEND!! 

I was real skeptical at first, especially since I had to install some dodgy-looking software using the terminal, BUT... It worked! I can actually access my NAS now. I just followed the instructions carefully.

 

Strange though, my NAS at work is exactly the same except its the 2GB MyBook World II and I can still access it after upgrading to Lion. 

The one at home is the 1GB and has upgraded firmware. This is the one that stopped connecting after the Lion upgrade, but thanks to illidan155's solution it is working again.

 

Question is, will there be issues once WD release their official fix? Can I easily uninstall netatalk?

I installed that fix As well, but for me it corrupted my back up, i do New Backups anymore, and i Cannot Access them, since they have been deleted. Hope the official update is boing to fix that.

Re: still waiting or?

I have tried using the following command

 

sudo ssh 192.168.0.14 (ip of WDWE)

 

I have tried my local password, and also the default password on these drives for user "wd_backup" is "backup" and get "Connection Refused"?

 

Anyone else get this?

The Password us not those it is on the tab to allow ssh and you can't change it.  Default may be wecl0me

try to restore factory setting then use again the same procedure but make sure to use the ''original'' authetication method when asked

 

 you can find the reset button on the back of your NAS drive

 

hope this help

I already chose the original authentication method. (Takes like 2 minutes for TM to connect, as well as Finder when mounting the drive.)

 

But thanky anyway. :smileyhappy:

Re: still waiting or?

for anyone having password issues, you have to enter your network password which you established at some point. Only after you enter this password for your local network you then will be prompted to enter the welc0me password.
