Windows Security and Enter Network Credentials Pop up. I am denied access to my own network.
Hello! Hopefully some one here can help me with this major conundrum. I have tried all of the recommended fixes I could find - at other Microsoft sites and through many Google hits, but none of ...
Not sure if this is you case, it took me quiet a while to get it to work ...
In the Network Credentials box enter a "full-qualfied" username, which includes the name of the endpoint. Then enter the password for this (NAS) identity.
- Username: WDMYCLOUDEX2\[nas_identity]
- Password: [nas_identity_password]
Actually I prefer entering these credentials in Credential Manager. Now whenever the connection is restored the right credentials are used.
- Select "Start"
- Enter "Credential Manager"
- Select "Windows Credentials"
Again, include the device the (local) domain, -eq NAS, with the User name.
Hope this helps.

Wim van Wieren That was it for me. Windows Credential Manager stored a password separate from our Ubuntu machine or samba user, so by resetting the password there, the Enter Network Credential no longer popped up. Thank you for the solution.
- Glad it helped, thats what the community is for 😉
