Users can access each others shares ?
I created 2 new users But logged in as any of them, they can access each others share. How can I avoid that ?
Private shares work, but are a bit more difficult to backup/restore.
Another possibility is to set the network permissions to the shares so only the user can access them. That's not quite as easy to set up (and the main folder itself is not concealed, just the files and folders within it). Basically you turn off anonymous access, and set the share to be owned by the desired user. Then only allow that user to access it via the network access setting for the share.
Is it just me or does this OS (6.5.1) convluauted to use.
All of the this account, folder, permissions stuff could be ALOT easier.
Making anything work seems like rocket science.
Very dissappointing. Should have just built a Server 2012 machine....too late now
This is pretty much how it works on any server or NAS. The locations/methods to do them vary, but the same set of tasks is necessary. If backup supported home shares better, that would make it a lot easier on the ReadyNAS.
