Support turns on AppleTalk, letting you use your 

LinkStation with older Macs.  Note that AppleTalk 

fi les are limited to 2GB maximum fi lesize and 32 

characters for fi lenames.  If a folder with AppleTalk 

on is accessed from a modern OS through SMB, these limitations will not apply.
Remote Backup Password will set a password on this share for other LinkStations who want to 

use it as a remote backup target.  This password will not affect users attempting to access the 

share; it only pertains to remote LinkStations trying to access this share for backup tasks.
