Network - FTP Server
By default, LinkStation’s
FTP Server
is disabled.
You may enable it here. Select
Registered Users
for
FTP Access User
for a password protected
FTP Server.
FTP Access
specifies whether the
anonymous shared folder is read-only or writable.
Check the shared folders that are to be available
through FTP under
Registered Users Public Shared
Folder Settings
. Multiple shared folders can be
added when the Registered Users FTP is used.
The shared folder’s settings are carried over from
LinkStation to the FTP Server. A user account that
has been added to LinkStation can be used for FTP
login credentials. Different user accounts have
different access restrictions; their rights will carry
over as rights on the FTP Server.
Buffalo does not recommend using anonymous FTP
shares due to potential security concerns. If
Anonymous
is selected as the FTP type, then one and only one
shared folder on LinkStation can be made available; select that folder as the
Anonymous User Shared Folder
.
Anyone will be able to access it.
