4.9.5. About Access Rights
✦
Read-Only
means that all users can view and open files, but
they only the administrator can copy files to the share (see
table at right).
✦
Read/Write
means that all users can view, modify, and copy
files to the share.
4.9.6. Specify Share-Level Access Protocols
If you click on the bullet under the Protocols column, you can modify
which access protocols are active for that share. By default, new
shares have SMB, AFP, and FTP enabled. If you want the share to
serve files to UPnP/DLNA devices and/or to act as a Time Machine
target, activate these protocols by clicking on the bullet in the Proto-
cols column. If the default setting is overruled at the share level, the
bullet in the Services column will turn from blue to yellow (
Fig. 58
).
