Set group permissions/Set user permissions: If a user or group is mistakenly dragged to the Read access
column or Read+write access column, you can drag it back to the No access column.
Set user permissions: Checking the box next to Enable Read access to guests on the network allows all
users on the network to view files on the share. However, they cannot modify files or write data to the
share.
Add remote share: distributed file system
namespaces (DFS-N)
During the course of a day, a user may access multiple files stored on many shares connected to your local
area network (LAN). To find all the shares and volumes spread about the network, a user can hunt through a
long list of NAS devices and servers.
NAS OS DFS-N allows administrators to add compatible shares to a single NAS OS device. Accessing shares
on a single device simplifies data management for the administrator and the user. Similar to creating a new
share, the administrator adds remote shares from other NAS OS devices or servers on the LAN. The other
NAS OS device or server is called the Host.
NAS OS DFS-N supports NAS OS shares and SMB shares/volumes. SMB or, server message block, is a
standard protocol for sharing network volumes. It is native to Windows and supported on Mac OS.
