Understanding NTFS and UNIX Permissions
When creating a NFS export, make sure that the NTFS permissions on the share allows the
correct permissions that you want assigned for users/groups. The following will help clarify
the translation between Unix and NTFS permissions:
■
The UNIX read bit is represented within NTFS as the List Folder/Read Data permission
■
The UNIX write bit is represented within NTFS as the Create File/Write Data, Create
Folders/Append Data, Write Attributes, and Delete Subfolders and Files permissions
■
The UNIX execute bit is represented within NTFS as the Traverse Folder/Execute File
permission
NFS File Shares
NFS file shares are created in the same manner as other file shares, however there are some
unique settings. Procedures for creating and managing NFS file shares are documented in the
same sections as creating file shares for other protocols. See the “Folder and Share
Management” chapter for more information.
Note:
NFS specific information is extracted from the “Folder and Share Management” chapter and
duplicated below.
Complete share management is performed through the Shares menu option of the WebUI.
Tasks include:
■
Creating a new share
■
Deleting a share
■
Modifying share properties
Each of these tasks is discussed in this section.

1. From the WebUI main menu, select the Shares tab and then select the Shares option. The
Shares dialog box is displayed. From the Shares dialog box, click New. The General tab
of the Create a New Share dialog box is displayed.
