Chapter 3 Using the Administrative Utility
Enable WINS
Click here if the network has a WINS Server. If enabled, the NAS Device will regis-
ter with the WINS Server. This will allow users on the network to locate the Device
through a router. (Without WINS , “Network Neighborhood” or “My Network
Places” only scans the local network.)
WINS Server
If WINS is enabled, enter the IP address of the WINS Server. Normally, this will be a
Windows NT /2000/ XP Server.
Enable Guest Logins
If enabled, “guest” can be used as user ID to login to the NAS Device. If disabled,
“guest” will not be accepted as a login.
Convert Failed Logins to “Guest” Logins
If this option is enabled, all Windows users will be able to access the NAS Device
via “Network Neighborhood” or “My Network Places,” with “guest” access rights.
By default, the “guest” user has read/write permission to the “Disk” folder on the
USB hard drive, and all folders on the USB flash drive.
Enable FTP Server
If this option is enabled, users can upload and download files via FTP (file transfer
protocol).
Allow anonymous FTP login (“guest” rights)
The FTP server prompts for a user name and password when clients attempt to
connect. If this option is enabled, users will be able to enter “anonymous” as the
user name, and anything as the password. If this option is disabled, users must
provide their correct user name and password.
Enable UPnP Support
If enabled, the NAS Device will broadcast its availability. On systems which support
UP n P (e.g., Windows Me, XP ), an icon for the NAS Device will be automatically
generated.
