Setting Up Security
Chapter 3 Customizing Your Snap Server 41
To assign disk usage quotas:
1 Navigate to Storage > Quotas in the Administration Tool. If the Enabled link is
Yes, continue to the next step. If the link is No, click the link, then click to put a
check in the
Enable Quotas on Volume [xxxx] box. You can also define a default
quota from this screen.
2 Click the volume on which you want to assign quotas. The server displays a list
of users along with their current disk space allocation and consumption.
3 Select the user for whom you want to assign a quota.
4 Enter the amount of disk space you want that user to have, or choose the No
Limit selection if you want the user to have no quota. Click
OK.
If you have enabled the Snap Server email notification feature (see “Setting Up
Notification via Email” on page 42), the server informs you whenever users fill up their
available disk space.
Accessing the Snap Server with GUEST Privileges
By default, a Snap Server has a predefined local user named GUEST that, if enabled,
allows anyone to use the Snap Server. If a user tries to access the Snap Server and is
not recognized or if the user connects as an anonymous user via FTP, then that user
is identified as GUEST and has whatever access privileges that have been allowed
to GUEST, AllLocalUsers, and/or AllUsers. Depending on the level of security you
require, you may want to restrict GUEST privileges when accessing some (or all)
network shares.
