Shares Screen
This screen allows you to manage the Shares which exist on the NAS Server. A "Share" is a folder (direc-
tory) on the NAS Server which a User Group can access.
• Only the NAS Server Administrators can create Shares. However, within a Share, users who have
access to that Share can create other folders (directories) as well as files.
• A Share can be accessed by many User Groups, and a User Group can access many Shares.
• If you have a Share within a Share, then all users with access to the outer share will ALWAYS have the
same access rights to the inner share.
Shares Screen
Existing Shares
Share List All existing shares are listed. When an existing Share is selected in the
list of Shares, it details are displayed in the "Share Properties" area.
Properties
Name The current name will be displayed. The Share Name can be changed
if you wish. This does not change the name of the folder (directory)
associated with the Share. Note that punctuation and other special
characters (e.g. * / | \ ) cannot be used in the name.
Comment Change or enter a comment if you wish.
Location The Location associated with the Share. Note that once a Share is
created, its location can not be changed. There are 2 options:
• Disk - Select the disk where you want the Share to be created.
• Folder - If "Default Folder" is selected, the share is created in the
root folder (directory) on the selected disk.
If "Specify" is selected, you can enter the folder (directory) to be
converted to a Share. If the folder does not exist, it will be created.
