==Posted from the Nabble Web Interface== Yogi, So reading into it, your Synology DS109 should be a Linux 2.6. based kernel. Your Windows "shares" are coming to you from the NAS as SMB/CIFS from a Samba 3.2.x package under Linux. So you are going to be subject to some of the file locking issues mentioned. It looks like there have been a number of upgrades to the NAS's OS and firmware, I'd go ahead and login to it and perform the upgrade to the latest OS release Disk Station Manager 3.2 ( http://forum.synology.com/enu/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=41034 ). Synology's Linux OS implementation provides a command line interface. The configuration files for the SAMBA service can be directly edited ( http://forum.synology.com/wiki/index.php/How_to_add_additional_directories ) to accomodate account permissions and file/record locking needed to make content of the SMB/CIFS shares fully editible from Windows 7. In addition to the Synology provided OS updates, there is a robust community of "modders" that actively integrate FOSS packages into the Synology Disk Station Manager NAS environment. Suggest you'll do well to do some reading in the Synology forums. You might be interested in the iSCSI support as an alternative to SMB/CIFS.
