Login style: DOMAIN\USERNAME instead of DOMAIN+USERNAME for FTP, AFP,
and File Station: In an Active Directory environment, the default login formats for
the domain users are:
o
Windows shares: domain\username
o
FTP: domain+username
o
File Station: domain+username
o
AFP: domain+username
When you enable this option, users can use the same login name format
(domain\username) to connect to the NAS via AFP, FTP, and File Station.
Autom atically register in DNS: When this option is enabled and the NAS is joined
to an Active Directory, the NAS will automatically register itself in the domain DNS
server. This will create a DNS host entry for the NAS in the DNS server. If the NAS
IP changes, the NAS will automatically update the IP in the DNS server.
Enable trusted domains: Select this option to load users from trusted Active
Directory domains and specify their NAS access permissions in "Privilege Settings" >
"Shared Folders". Domain trusts are only set up in Active Directory, not on the
NAS.)
Enable Asynchronous I/O: Enable this option to increase SAMBA performance.
Please note: we strongly recommend using a UPS when this option is enabled.
Enable Highest SMB version: Please choose the version of the SMB protocol
(Server Message Block) for your Microsoft Networking operations. If you are unsure,
please use the default option.
Apple Networking
To connect to the NAS from Mac OS X, enable Apple Filing Protocol. If the AppleTalk
network uses extended networks and is assigned with multiple zones, assign a zone
name to the NAS. Enter an asterisk (*) to use default settings. This setting is disabled
by default. To allow access to the NAS from Mac OS X 10.7 Lion, enable "DHX2
authentication support". Click "Apply" to save the settings. You can use the Finder to
connect to a shared folder from Mac. Go to "Go" > "Connect to Server", or simply use
the default keyboard shortcut "Command+k". Enter the connection information in the
"Server Address" field, such as "afp://YOUR_NAS_IP_OR_HOSTNAME". Here are some
examples:
afp://10.8.12.111
afp://NAS-559
smb://192.168.1.159
