 Using your LinkStation

LinkStation User Manual

26

There are several ways to restrict access to users of a LinkStation.

Access restrictions for Users and/or Groups on the LinkStation
The next page describes how to configure access restrictions for local users and/or groups.

Access Restrictions on NT Domain
Follow the procedure on page 29 to configure.

Access Restrictions on Active Directory
Follow the procedure on page 31 to configure.

Notes:• This chapter describes the procedure to use Active Directory with Windows 2000 Server,  

  Server 2003, and Server 2008.

 

• Depending on the security settings, the LinkStation may not be able to join, or may be  

  able to join but may not be authenticated by a domain. In such a case, it is recommended  
  to restrict access by delegating authority.

Access restrictions by using the Delegate Authority server feature
Follow the procedure on page 33 to configure.

Notes:• Permissions are assigned to shared folders.  Child folders in a shared folder inherit their  

  permissions from the parent folder.  If a file or folder is moved into a new shared folder  
  with different permissions from the folder it was originally in, it will now have the access  
  restrictions from the new shared folder.

 

• When accessing the LinkStation from Windows via SMB, changing permissions from the  

  folder’s security tab in the properties screen of a folder is not supported.  Access restrictions  
  for shared folders on the LinkStation can only be configured from within the Web Admin  
  interface.
