Access Restrictions
There are several ways to restrict access to users of a LinkStation.
Access restrictions for locally registered users
The next page describes how to configure access restrictions for local users.
Access restrictions by using the Delegate Authority server feature
Follow the procedure on page 29 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.
