• Users that are automatically registered belong to the “hdusers” group. They can be added to other groups from
within group settings. Added users will be listed in “Users” > “External Users”. To delete a user that was registered
automatically, select that user and click
Delete External User .
• If both read-only and read and write permissions are given to a user, the user will have read-only access.
• OS X 10.4 or earlier and Windows Server 2012 are not supported with external authentication.
• To access access-limited shared folders from OS X 10.7, use AFP instead of SMB; under “LAN Protocol Support”,
check “AFP (Mac)” on the destination folders to use AFP and click OK .
• If access restrictions are set for users and groups from the authentication server, guest and anonymous
connections will not be possible with AFP connections.
• FTP connections do not support authentication with an external SMB server.
• If using a Windows PC for external authentication, the default Windows SMB security settings may need to be
changed. An easy way to do this is to run the File Sharing Security Level Change Tool, available from this product’s
download page on the Buffalo website. This utility will let you easily change or restore your Windows security
settings to work with external authentication.
