I assume that It looks like the service account of the Snapdrive windows service does not have sufficient privileges on the filer. This account needs to be member of the administrator group of the filer. BTW, I assume the CIFS is working properly on the filer.

You can add the service account to the administrator group with following command:

> useradmin domainuser add <username> -g administrators
