How to Resolve: CIFS Authentication Failed message for user GUEST?

[frederickwong]

My cloud mirror is running in a Mac-centric network. I keep getting authentication failed message in the log file (two attempts every hour). The log file itself is not informative enough for me to find out which machine tries to connect to the NAS.

1. is there a way for me to find out more details about these errors?
2. is there a way for me to solve this “GUEST” connection attempt in macos environment? I have each user connect to the NAS using a login created on the NAS (no guest access from admin pov).

Thanks for your help!
