It is important to consider interoperability with applications such as MS Word
2007 and Photoshop. For example, if this field is not selected and you gave a user
write permissions to a file and that user tried to open, edit, and save the file, the
save would fail because Word sets up a temporary file and then attempts to delete
it and replace it with the new version. Not all applications work this way. It is
important to consider the applications used by your users to determine how you
want to set this field.
•
Select this field
: By selecting this field, users with write permissions can
rename or delete files or folders within the assigned share even though they
are not the owners of the files or folders.
•
Deselect this field
: Users cannot rename or delete a file or folder within the
assigned share unless they are the owners of the file or folder.
NOTE
Unlike the setting on the
Shares Setup
page, this setting is global, not per share. All
files within folders created through FTP act according to this setting, regardless of
the share they are created in.
STEP 15
If you want clients to access the NSS through
Passive Mode FTP
through a
firewall and/or router, enter the router’s WAN IP address in the
PASV IP Address
field. Continue with the next step.
NOTE
Passive Mode FTP through a router
only works on a single interface. If you have
VLANs defined, choose which interface to access through FTP.
STEP 16
If you are setting up
Passive Mode FTP
, set up the passive mode range:
•
Minimum port for passive mode (PASV) connections
: If your network has
FTP connections that pass through a firewall, set the minimum port for the
port range. The default is 1025.
•
Maximum port for passive mode (PASV) connections
: Set the maximum
port number for the port range. The default is 4000. Ensure your router is
configured to forward the entire configured Passive Mode FTP port range
to the NSS.
