•  If the TeraStation has joined a domain network, you cannot connect to it via FTP.
•  Don’t disable the SMB protocol while an NT domain server is used for access restrictions. If you do, you will need 

to enable SMB again and reconfigure the NT domain settings from scratch.

TeraStations on your network can be linked to an authentication server for centralized management of user accounts 
and passwords. The authentication server should be a LinkStation or another TeraStation.

Notes: 
•  Other external SMB authentication servers are not supported.  Use a TeraStation or a LinkStation for the authenti-

cation server.

•  When saving changes to the external authentication server settings, clicking Yes will convert all local users to 

external authentication users. If external authentication is disabled, local user passwords will need to be reconfig-
ured.

•  Disable SMB2 before using external authorization with Windows 8.
•  Using external authentication may require the default security settings in Windows to be changed. An easy way 

to do this is to run the File Sharing Security Level Change Tool, available from www.buffalotech.com. This simple 
tool will let you change or restore your Windows security settings to work with external authentication.
