Combining OLC with ELC?
We're looking at using egnyte to provide file access to some remote offices and partners. Our main site has a full Active Directory/vSphere setup so we are planning on having an ELC appliance there...

Thanks Johnny, I think you've confirmed how I understood it to work, I just wasn't sure.
I have been dealing with one of your account managers when we did a trial, we're just at the point where we have to work out ourselves what we want to do as a business for this issue.
One thing I could do with clarifying is whether the ReadyNAS caches the egnyte administrator credentials? What I mean to say is:
"Office A" admin user logs into their NAS as admin to add/remove a user.
Would they, as a NAS admin (they wouldn't be told the Egnyte admin credentials), be able to go to the Egnyte section of the ReadyNAS and tell the Office A NAS to pull down the Office B folder on Egnyte, which they should not be able to access?
I just need to know so that I can plan out how we'd deal with adding/removing ReadyNAS users if it's not practical to have someone in that office have access to the NAS.
