It is also possible to define folders as shares on root level for each disk. This makes it possible for a
user to map directly to a specific folder on a hard disk.
Access Control
In order to protect the hard disks, files and folders that are shared by your StorPoint NAS, you can
set up specific access restrictions. In the Windows (SMB) environment, you select whether you
want to use share-level or user-level access control:
•
Share-level
access control will prompt the users to supply a password before they can access the
shared resource.
•
User-level
access control will grant specific users access to specific resources. This method also
allows the StorPoint NAS to be integrated with existing Windows NT or OS/2 domains.
