add the log on credentials in the device settings.

Is the share on a windows OS host or different?

Thanks, after adding Windows Credentials it no longer fails. The share is on a Linux samba server.

Good Morning, I've a problem with the share disk free sensor. I've a external disk currently connect and shared in a Linux device (Raspberry PI) through samba server. I can connect to it correctly in windows and it is mapped as D: When I add the shared disk to prtg, I received the following error:

"Logon failure: Una sessione di accesso specificata non esiste. Potrebbe essere già stata terminata(1312) (code: PE029)"

I've added the correct linux samba credentials in prtg on the probe (the windows device) settings (at the voice: Credentials for Linux/Solaris/Mac OS (SSH/WBEM) Systems ) but same error.

Can you please help me? Thanks

You'll need to add the sensor to the device that is the raspberry pi, and enter the credentials in the Windows section - then it'll work :)

Kind regards,
