•<user name> and <password> match the user name and password on the ReadyNAS.

•<ReadyNAS IP address> is the IP address of the ReadyNAS.

•<shared folder name> is the name of the shared folder that you want to access.

•<mount point> is the name of an empty folder on the Linux or Unix device.

To access an NFS shared folder using a network-attached Linux or Unix device:

1.Ensure that the NFS file-sharing protocol is enabled on your ReadyNAS system.

For more information, see Set Network Access Rights to Shared Folders on page 48.

2.Using a terminal program, enter the following command:

mount [-t nfs] <ReadyNAS IP address> :/ <volume name> / <shared folder name> <mount point>

•<ReadyNAS IP address> is the IP address of the ReadyNAS.

•<volume name> is the name of the volume on which the shared folder resides.

•<shared folder name> is the name of the shared folder that you want to access.

•<mount point> is the name of an empty folder on the Linux or Unix device.

Use FTP and FTPS

You can use FTP and FTPS to access any shared folders that are enabled for the FTP and FTPS file-sharing protocols.

For better security, use an FTPS client to connect to your ReadyNAS using the FTP file-sharing protocol. With FTPS, your password and data are encrypted.

If you are using FTPS, you must use explicit mode (also known as FTPES or AUTH TLS) in your FTP client.

To access a shared folder using FTP:

1.Ensure that the FTP file-sharing protocol is enabled on your ReadyNAS system.

For more information, see Set Network Access Rights to Shared Folders on page 48.

2.Launch an FTP client or a terminal program.

3.Log in to your ReadyNAS system, as follows:

•If you required user FTP access when you enabled the FTP-file sharing protocol, log in using user or administrator credentials for your ReadyNAS system. If you log in as a user, your access is limited by the settings configured by the ReadyNAS system administrator.

•If you allowed anonymous access when you enabled the FTP-file sharing protocol, log in as anonymous and use your email address for the password.

Use Rsync

You can use Rsync to access any shared folders that are enabled for the Rsync file-sharing protocol. Instead of browsing shared folders as you do with some other file-sharing protocols, with Rsync, you copy files from your ReadyNAS system to another computer that supports the Rsync file-sharing protocol. If you previously copied these files, Rsync copies only the differences between the source files and the destination files, making the transfer much quicker than using other file-sharing protocols. The first time you copy files using the Rsync file-sharing protocol, you see no performance difference.
