Chapter 3 File Sharing
• If access restrictions are set for users and groups from the authentication server, guest and anonymous
connections will not be possible with AFP connections.
• FTP connections do not support authentication with an external SMB server.
• If using a Windows PC for external authentication, the default Windows SMB security settings may need to be
changed. An easy way to do this is to run File Sharing Security Level Change Tool, available from this product’s
download page on the Buffalo website. This utility will let you easily change or restore your Windows security
settings to work with external authentication.
