Windows 10: Network question Daisy chaining shares

Hi folks

If I have a NAS / LINUX server and a Windows machine on a network I can mount a Windows drive on to the NAS server and if it's mounted on a SAMBA share e.g /mnt/sharename then anybody who has access to the server can also access the Windows share (assuming right credentials).

the other way around it doesn't work -- If I connect a network share from NAS to the Windows box I can't make that drive shared to other users who can access the Windows box so you need to have TWO devices / servers available on the network instead of just one.

I'm not a network guru so I might have missed something here - but is there any way to share a "shared" network drive so users only see the Windows box with the shared Linux folder on it but have no access to the Linux server.

I don't think this is a problem of actual Network connections but just the way Windows works. Perhaps there's no way around this - but my gut feeling is that it ought to be possible for Windows to "Daisy chain" a network share.

Cheers

Displaying laptop to multiple TVs/monitors

Yes you are supposed to be able to daisy chain up to 4 (I think) monitors on a single HDMI connection. But your video card and HDMI port and all of the monitors and all of the cables have to have to support the feature.

Have you tried building up the chain slowly? Start with one monitor. Get it working, then plug in the second monitor, etc.

Or, rather than running a long daisy chain, you may want to consider using a Hub that splits the HDMI port. Here is an example of the device I am talking about:

I an not specifically recommending it, just using it as an example. Taht way you take the monitors out of the chain.

It must have been AC plug orientation of your charger, not the same with that of the stand. Alone it will work but having it daisy chain with the stand it does not.
