Hiding share from ReadyCloud?
Hi, I have ReadyCLOUD working perfectly on my RN104 but I'm wondering if it's possible to hide some shares or folders from the cloud, as in only being able to access them from LAN (Windows 8.1), whil...
- Jul 29, 2015Are you trying to hide the folder/share from the invited user? Or are you trying to hide it from your (owner?) account?
If it is an invited user then Vandermerwe and JennC has the article posts that you are looking for to correct the behavior.
If you are referring to your account with the owner account, then there is not an option to allow you to hide the shares. Since you are the owner, you are considered the admin that will have more visibility than your invited users.

Hi OOM-9, the last one. I'm trying to hide it everywhere. Ideally I would want to have one folder or volume (or whatever other way) that isn't accesible at all from the internet, while still being visible from my LAN.

It seems this is not possible, then. Thanks!
