Hello again,

I wanted to move data from my old NAS to the new one and i followed the above procedure.

1. Export the configuration from the OLD and imported to the NEW
2. I manually synchronized the shared folders with "Shared Folder Sync", even the homes shared folder
3. Finally changed the IP and renamed the NEW with the OLD values.


Everything worked fine and the PCS are able even connect to mapped drives on Windows machines.

Unfortunately users cannot see their home folder.

At first i thought that importing configuration created diffeterent ids on /etc/passwd and /etc/group on new NAS than what they had on OLD, but even a new user does not have home folder

Does anyone knows how to resolve this issue?

Thanks again @fredbert

You figured out the problem. I enabled it and problem solved.

For the future reader it was Control Panel --> User --> Advanced --> User Home
