Acer NAS 700 Computer Drive User Manual


 
ASC NAS Clients
ASC NAS Clients are the users and groups that access NAS resources via the ASC
Server. There are two types of NAS clients you will see:
Windows clients - These clients use the Common Internet File System
(CIFS) protocol to work together and share documents. Because many
operating systems support CIFS, it is possible to have clients using other
operating systems listed as Windows clients.
NFS clients - These clients are usually Unix clients using the Network
File System (NFS) protocol.
You will only see
Users
and
Groups
under
Windows Clients
if the NAS
authentication mode is
Server
or
Domain
. If the authentication mode is
Share
,
you will not see any users listed because there is no authentication server and
any Windows client can access a share (provided he/she knows the password).
If the authentication mode is
Server
, you will only see groups if the
authentication server is a Primary Domain Controller (PDC)/Domain Controller.
To update the list of users/groups, right-click on the
Windows Clients
object
and select
Refresh Windows Clients
.
