Windows Users: Accessing the NSS Storage through FTP
Windows users who have a user profile set up can access any shares to which they have privileges
on the NSS storage using CIFS/SMB or FTP.
NOTE:
Before your end users can access the shares on the NSS using FTP, the NSS must
have FTP access enabled and the individual share must be set up to allow FTP access.
Refer to the online help from the NSS configuration interface for detailed help.
To access the NSS storage using FTP:
1. From your FTP client application, connect to the NSS. You need to enter the IP address or
hostname of the NSS. For more information about using your FTP client application, refer to its
documentation.
2. Enter your username and password when prompted by your FTP client.
When your FTP client has logged in, a list of shares accessible by the user appears as individual
directories.
3. Depending on your privileges to the share, you can begin using the NSS storage.
