If you want to make the NAS files available to the entire planet you go into frontview. Select services on the left, you will see standard file protocols appear under it. Select it, then scroll down until you see FTP. There will be a list of parameters - first one is port, the second is authentication mode. Change the authenication mode to anonymous and press apply.

Where do I address that?
Otherwise you need to specify the right user logon in your client. I use FileZilla - you can specify user name and password manually, or create an entry in he site manager that specifies the logon, etc for the NAS. Other clients will work differently.
