• Access Restrictions for Users and/or Groups on the TeraStation
Follow the procedure on page 54 to configure.
• Access Restrictions on NT Domain
Follow the procedure on page 56 to configure.
• Access Restrictions on Active Directory
Follow the procedure on page 58 to configure.
Notes:
• This chapter describes the procedure to use Active Directory with Windows 2000 Server, Server 2003, and Server
2008.
• Depending on the security settings, the TeraStation may not be able to join, or may be able to join but may not
be authenticated by a domain. In such a case, it is recommended to restrict access by delegating authority.

Notes:
• Access restrictions on the TeraStation are configured for shared folders in the root folder. Subfolders inherit their
permissions from their parent folder and may not be configured separately.

within Windows or Mac OS is not supported.
