User groups and users

User groups and users

One fundamental feature of a NAS unit is the fact that you can assign drive partitions and network shares to users and/or user groups. This greatly helps out allocating certain security and accessibility features.

Users and groups also can have a set of limitations, say 1000 MB of storage in the USER or GROUP assigned shares.

After making a new directory share you can give the USER and/or GROUPS certain permissions like no access, read only or full read/write capability. Once the network share is setup with the clock of a button you can share it in Windows and assign a drive letter to it.

Should you like to access a secure map in windows and mount it ? Just type \\ns4600-619917 (or enter \\ with the assigned NS4600 computer name), then enter the USER login and password assigned to it, and you can access the user based and assigned shares.
