Shared Folder Access Rights

ReadyNAS OS 6.0

Access Rights to Shared Folders

Access rights apply to individual shared folders. For each shared folder, you control the file-sharing protocols that can be used to access the shared folder and the access rights granted to each user, group, and host. For example, you might want to grant a user read/write permission on one shared folder, read-only permission on another shared folder, and no access rights at all on a third shared folder. By default, all users and groups have read/write access

The following table lists access right options available to you.

Table 6. Access right options

Access Right	Description

Read-only	The user with this permission can read files on this shared folder, but cannot edit or
	create files on this shared folder.
Read/write	A user with this permission can read, edit, and create files on this shared folder.

Read-only for everyone	Access to this shared folder is read-only for all users except for one or more users
with exceptions	who are granted read/write permission.
Read/write for everyone	Access to this shared folder is read/write for all users except for one or more users
with exceptions	who are granted read-only permission.

Disabled with exceptions	Access to this shared folder is disabled for all users except for one or more users
	who are granted either read-only or read/write permission.

User and Group Authentication

The way that users and groups are authenticated depends on the user and group management mode that you selected (see User and Group Management Modes on page 137):

•Local user database. If you use the local database, create group and user accounts before you set up shared folder access rights. For more information about creating and managing groups and user accounts, see Chapter 6, Users and Groups.

•Active Directory. If you use an external Active Directory, the user and group information is downloaded into the ReadyNAS. User and group access rights are listed when you select the Access tab in the shared folder settings pop-up screen.
