To set the NAS as a domain controller, follow the steps below:
1. Go to "Control Panel" > "Privilege Settings" > "Domain Controller" > "Domain
Controller" tab.
2. Select a domain controller mode from the drop down list.
3. Specify a domain (example: mydomain.mycompany.local.)
4. Fill out the administrator password and the same password again in the "Verify

After a domain controller is enabled, only the domain users can connect to Microsoft
Networking shared folders. Please be sure to grant shared folder permissions to domain
users and groups.
Note:
The NAS can only act as either a domain controller or LDAP server. If the
option "Enable Domain Controller" is grayed out, please disable the LDAP Server in
"Control Panel" > "Applications" > "LDAP Server" first.
