Chapter 3 File Sharing
• Depending on the domain controller’s policy settings, the domain controller may force the TeraStation to leave
the Active Directory domain. If this occurs, the TeraStation will lose the domain users and groups so if you have
configured access restrictions using domain accounts, these users will no longer be able to access shared folders.
In such a case, change the policy settings on the domain controller or let the TeraStation join the Active Directory
domain again.
Configuring Access Restrictions for Subfolders
You may restrict access to subfolders in shared folders by configuring access permissions from your computer using
Windows File Explorer.
Notes:
• Depending on the environment, the function may not work properly when enabled. We recommend verifying
the functionality before using.
• Access permissions configuring from File Explorer is available for up to 18 files and 24 folders. This number of
available access permissions may vary if access permissions are inherited from the parent object.
The number of available access permissions are not many so using group access permissions is recommended
if the permission level is the same to the multiple users; it will save spending the number of available access
permissions.
