Managing User Access

v1.1, June 2009

SSL key host: This field lets you configure the hostname used for the ReadyNAS to
generate its SSL certificate, and then create a new SSL certificate. It is advised users
update this field to match the current IP address of the ReadyNAS and then generate a
new SSL certificate to avoid future certificate errors from their web browser.

2. Configure the HTTP/S share access options.

Change the Share Access Restrictions to allow HTTP access to the share according to the user
permissions you require.

3. Enable WebDAV support: WebDAV is an HTTP connection method that can allow drag and

drop file transfers similar to what users may experience with their standard Windows or Mac
OSX computer. See ReadyNAS.com for a how-to explanation of how to set up WebDAV:

Note: In this scenario, it is best to have a fixed IP configuration for the

ReadyNAS so that the certificate will remain valid. Also, if the WAN IP
address configuration is DHCP, then it is advisable to use a Dynamic DNS
service to access the ReadyNAS via a persistent fully qualified domain
name a DDNS service provides rather than via an IP address.
