2.5.5 Share and Folder Names
The name can only contain the following characters:
• Alphanumeric (A-z 0-9) and Unicode.
The NSA allows FTP access to shares, folders or files with names encoded in the UTF-8
(8-bit UCS/Unicode Transformation Format) format. So your FTP client must support
UTF-8 in order to access shares, folders or files on the NSA with Unicode names.
• Spaces
• _ [underscores]
•. [periods]
• - [dashes]
Other limitations include:
• All leading and trailing spaces are removed automatically.
• Multiple spaces within names are converted to a single space.
• Share names must be unique (they cannot be the same as other share names).
• The NSA creates automatic volume names for external (USB) disk volumes. These are a
type of share, so the share name you configure cannot conflict with the external (USB)
disk volume names. “ExtVol1” or “ExtVol2” are examples of external (USB) disk volume
names.
• Folder names must be unique (they cannot be the same as other folder names).
• The minimum character length of a name is one character, that is a name cannot be blank.
• The maximum character length of share name is 255 characters.
• Unicode is supported for share names, although your FTP client must support UTF-8. Full
support should be available in all Windows versions after Windows 2000.
Read Only This appears when you set the Share Access to Advanced. Select this column’s
radio button in a user account’s row to give the user read-only access to the
share. This allows the user to view or copy files in the share, but not delete files in
the share or save files to the share.
Select the check box at the top of the column to give all of the users read-only
access to the share.
Deny This appears when you set the Share Access to Advanced. Select this column’s
radio button in a user account’s row to stop the user from accessing the share.
This means the user cannot read files in the share, delete files in the share, or
save files to the share.
Select the check box at the top of the column to stop all of the users from
accessing the share.
Note: Selecting the check box at the top of the column blocks
everyone (including the administrator) from accessing the
share.
