UNIX/Linux Users: Accessing Storage through FTP
UNIX and Linux users who have a user profile set up can access any shares to which they have privileges on the NSS storage using NFS or FTP. Note that when using FTP to access the NSS storage, users cannot rename folders. This is due to FTP standards (any FTP servers that allow renaming of folders deviate from these standards).
NOTE: Before your end users can access the shares on the NSS using FTP, the NSS network filters must be set up to allow FTP access. The individual share must be also be set up to allow FTP access.
To access the NSS storage using FTP:
STEP 1 Open your FTP client application.
STEP 2 Enter the NSS hostname/IP address.
STEP 3 Enter any other required settings. If using FTPS, ensure that the client is set to use Explicit FTPS. For more help using the FTP client, refer to the FTP client documentation.
STEP 4 Enter your username and password when prompted by the FTP client.
STEP 5 Depending on your privileges to the share, you can begin using the NSS storage.
