Fine-Tune Share Access
Use Dashboard to fine-tune how shares can be accessed. You can enable or disable all
file-sharing protocols and grant or restrict access rights for each share and user. For
example, you might want to grant a user read/write access rights on one share but read-only
access rights on another share.
For more information about creating and managing users, see
Chapter 4, Users and Groups
.
For information about specifying services, see
Manage File-Sharing Protocols and Services

To fine-tune share access:
1.
Select
Configure > Shares
.
2.
Select the share that you want to work with.
3.
To specify the sharing protocols, select the check boxes for the protocols that you want to
allow.
By default, the SMB and AFP check boxes are selected. If you clear those check marks,
no one can access this share remotely using those file-sharing protocols from a
network-attached device (like a laptop or tablet). If you want to allow additional protocols,
such as FTP or HTTP, select those check boxes.
If you select a share that is currently not enabled for your system, selecting it here
enables it for your entire storage system. For more information about global share
settings, see
