Menu Functions
3.0 GalaxyNASLX2 GUI Functions
On the following pages, we will thoroughly describe every function of the GalaxyNASLX2. The
functions are divided by menu options, which are located at the top part of each GUI screen.
3.1.0 “Resources” Menu Functions Figure 3.1
The search control allows the lookup of users or groups in the remote or local user database
that the NAS is currently attached to. To apply a criteria, put a string into the 'search' textbox
and click on the ‘go’ button. All found entries, containing the search string, would be listed.
Note that the first time you use the search facility, your query will be sent back to the server for
processing. All the subsequent searches will access only the locally cached data to save time.
To query the database directly again, click the 'use cache' checkbox.
You can use standard expressions to look for users, for example:
to lookup a users’ ID beginning with the word 'beg' type ^beg
similarly, append '$' to the string if you want to lookup entries ending with
that text. to lookup users or groups ending with 'frog' type-in frog$.
"
NOTE: By default the search textbox is empty which does not impose any criteria
as to what groups or users are shown in the tree. After you hit the ’go’ button the first
found users /groups will be shown (up to the limit given).
Adding elements to the tree can be a time consuming task – especially when the criteria is
excessive and the limit is set up to more than 300 entries. To cancel the operation before it is
finished, click on the stop button.
