NSS3000 Series Network Storage System Getting Started Guide 20
Accessing the Network Storage
The NSS allows end users running a Windows, UNIX, Linux, or Mac computer to
easily access the NSS storage on the network. Once they log into the NSS using
their username and password, they can access all the shares to which they have
read or read-write privileges. The NSS supports the CIFS, NFS, and FTP
file-sharing protocols.
Windows Users
Windows users who have a user profile set up can access any shares to which
they have privileges on the NSS storage using CIFS/SMB or FTP.
Accessing the Storage using CIFS/SMB
To access the NSS storage using CIFS/SMB:
STEP 1 Choose one of these options to access the NSS.
From the My Computer window, type \\<hostname> or \\<IP address> in
the Address bar. (Where the <hostname> refers to your NSS hostname and
<IP address> refers to your NSS IP address. For example,
"\\NAS0123456789ab or \\192.168.1.2".)
Browse for the NSS from the My Network Places window.
Map the NSS to a network drive.
