Troubleshooting - Multiple Shares
◗
When mapping any share, select the ‘Connect using a different user
name’ option. A login and password prompt will appear. Enter the same
username and password for all shares. This username and password
is the username and password required for the secure, restricted
share. Use this same login procedure for all unsecure, unrestricted
and restricted shares on LinkStation. Due to this limitation, only one
username and password can be used for all mapped shares. Thus,
a PC cannot have two mapped, secured shares that use different
username and passwords.
It is important to remember that ALL mapped drives must use the same
username and password. This means that even unsecure, unrestricted
mapped shares will have to login using the secured share’s username
and password.
If only unrestricted shares are being mapped, then it is not necessary to
set a username and password for the shares. Multiple mapped drives to
unrestricted shares can exist without a username and password (as long
as no restricted, secure shares are mapped).
