Adding Users
By default, the storage system includes a user named “guest” that has a password of “guest”.
Windows and Mac OS X users can access all shared folders that “guest” is authorized to access.
However, you might want to add other users as well. For example, if you want to restrict access to
a shared folder that contains confidential information, you would add at least one user and authorize
that user to access that shared folder (and not authorize the “guest” user to access it). Adding a
user for each individual or computer in your network provides flexibility and security, enabling you to
control exactly who can access what information.
In addition, only Windows and Mac OS X users can use the “guest” user name. If there are Linux users
or Mac users who aren’t using OS X in your network, you must add users to allow those individuals
to access any shared folders.
You can add up to 64 users. (Up to twenty client systems can be supported.)
To add a user:
1. In the navigation bar, click “Users”.
The “Users & Computers” page appears.
