AD + FTP separate Security ReadyNas 314
Hey I am using my ReadyNAS connected to an Active Directory. For external users, I want them to be able to download some files via FTP. But they should use Credentials to connect to the FTP. ...

Once the AD is integrated on the NAS, authentications will be based on the Domain users. I think the best way is to create FTP users/group on the domain for the external users.
Local user database on the NAS is unusable as long as it is integrated on the AD. You cannot create users as well.
