Managing users
When you click Users in the navigation bar, the Users & Computers
page displays. This page displays a list of all currently configured
Windows and Mac OS X users, as well as all Linux and other Mac
computers. (In this guide, the term “user” refers to both “individuals”
and “computers”.)
By default, the storage system uses local authentication mode, which
means that you can add, modify, or remove all types of users at any
time. If you are using Active Directory authentication mode, you can
add, modify, or remove Linux or other Mac users, but not Windows
users. All Windows users are controlled entirely by the Active Directory
server. (For more information about authentication modes, refer to
“Changing the authentication mode” on page 137.)
If you are using local authentication mode, you can also put Windows
and Mac OS X users into groups. This makes it easier to give several
users access to the same shared folder at once. For example, in an
office environment, you might create one group for all users and give
that group read-only access to a shared folder with corporate policies.
