Specifying WINS Properties

Similar to DNS, the Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) is the

Windows NT server method for associating a computer's hostname with its

address.
To specify the WINS properties:

1

In the Command View NAS web interface, click the Configuration tab,

navigate down the tree to Networking Settings > Windows.

2

Select Actions > Edit WINS Properties.

3

Enter a WINS Server IP Address.

4

Optionally, you can enter a Network Neighborhood Comment (the

comment you enter appears in the Network Neighborhood comment

field).

5

Click OK.

Defining Windows Security

You can choose from two Windows NT security modes:

Share-Level Security: The NAS server handles its own security. Shares

may be password-protected and may limit your access (read-only and/or

read/write) to data. You may define a password when you create the

share.

User-Level Security: A domain controller is used to authenticate users

when they access the NAS server. This requires specifying the domain

name.

To define the Windows NT security mode:

1

In the Command View NAS web interface, click the Configuration tab.

2

Navigate down the tree to Networking Settings > Windows.

3

Select Actions > Edit Windows Security Properties.
