I have just added an HTTP

share but cannot see it

from the NAS Manager.

For security purposes, directory

browsing is not enabled by default

on an HTTP share directed to the

same folder or volume as another

share.

To enable directory sharing for an HTTP share, from the

NAS Manager Maintenance page, click Remote

Desktop, and then modify the Web sharing properties

of the folder.

I have just changed the IP

address of my system, and

now I cannot administer it

through the NAS Manager.

Although the IP address changed,

your local host is still trying to

communicate with the system using

the old IP address. It takes

approximately 15 minutes for the

IP address to automatically update

on most networks.

Close Microsoft Internet Explorer. Reconnect using the

newly created IP address. Type:
https://IPaddress:1279

. It takes approximately 15

minutes for the DNS server to recognize the new IP

address.

I can only see the first 100

items in the NAS Manager

Web user interface.

The NAS Manager will only display

100 items per page.

To display the next 100 items, click the down-arrow icon

at the top of the list.

In the NAS Manager, if I

click OK and then click

Cancel, it doesn't seem to

cancel the operation.

Clicking Cancel does not

dynamically stop an update to the

system after you click OK.

If an operation has been performed in error, the system

administrator must change the setting back manually.

When I select the Check

All box and then deselect

one or more choices on

some screens in the NAS

Manager, the Check All

box remains selected.

The Check All box is not

automatically deselected. However,

this does not mean that all items in

the list are selected.

This behavior does not affect functionality. The Check

All box does not indicate what has specifically been

selected or deselected.

I have changed the

password for the

administrator account;

however, several minutes

have passed and I have

not been primoted for the

new password.

The NAS Manager does not

automatically refresh the account

information for the administrator

while in the NAS Manager. Instead,

it performs the refresh as a timed

function.

The password was successfully changed. If you want to

confirm that the new password is in effect, close the

browser, and then reconnect. The new password should

work, but the old one should not.

I am looking for a topic on

the context-sensitive online

help in the NAS Manager,

but it says No Topic
Available

.

Some sections of the NAS Manager

do not have context-sensitive help.

For information on a specific function, see the Windows

Powered Help, which is available by logging into a

Remote Desktop Session and clicking the Start button

and selecting Help and Support. You can also see the

appropriate section in this Administrator's Guide.

I tried to clear the FTP log

or the Web (HTTP) Shares

log in the Maintenance

section of the NAS

Manager, but I received an

error message and the log

was not cleared.

The logs are currently locked by the

NAS system for the FTP service and

to support the NAS Manager. The

logs cannot be cleared in the NAS

Manager.

Connect to the NAS system using Remote Desktop and

clear these logs by using MMC. You can access MMC by

logging into a Remote Desktop session and then right-

clicking My Appliance and selecting Manage.

While viewing the

properties of a user, I

selected the General tab.

The fields for this user are

now all blank.

You were already on the General

tab and the page did not refresh

properly.

Select Cancel or click Back on your browser. Reselect

the user for whom you wanted to view properties.

I added members to a local

group using the NAS

Manager, but when I click

OK, the screen only

refreshes.

You might have removed and then

added the same member to the

local group. This may cause the

screen to refresh instead of update

correctly.

Reselect the Local Groups tab in the NAS Manager

primary menu. Add or remove the appropriate members

to or from the local group.

I cannot change the WINS

addresses when I click

Network on the NAS

Manager primary menu,

click Network Interfaces,

and then click WINS in the

Tasks list.

The NAS Manager grays out the

WINS Servers Configuration

page unless you set the IP

Address Configuration page to

Use the following IP settings.

To set the WINS addresses from the NAS Manager, click

Network on the primary menu, click Interfaces, and

click IP in the Tasks list. On the IP Address

Configuration page, click the radio button for Use the

following IP settings, and then type the IP address,

Subnet mask, and the default gateway in the appropriate

text boxes.
