Configuring the NSS for FTP Access
You can configure the NSS to allow the FTP protocol to be used for file transfers
between the NSS over the Internet. The NSS supports both FTP (faster but not as

supports Explicit FTPS (versus Implicit FTPS). The NSS does not support SFTP.
After you globally enable FTP access, you can allow or disallow FTP access on a
per-share basis.

NOTE:
The default setting is to disable FTP
access. You must enable FTP access before
your users can access the NSS storage through
FTP regardless of their per-share settings.
