6.7 User Accounts for Network Shares
The HorstBox is equipped with two USB ports at the back panel.
You can attach any USB storage device, such as USB Memory
Sticks or USB hard drives. Using a Card Reader memory cards
like Compact Flash (CF) or Secure Digital (SD) will be recognized
also. Even MP3 players, PDAs, digital cameras or mobile phones
can be used as long as they operate as USB storage device. Sup-
ported file systems: FAT, FAT32 and EXT2.
Using an USB hub with an additional power supply (such as
D-Link’s DUB-H7) several devices can be attached concurrently.
Please be patient for a short moment while the HorstBox detects
and initialises the attached USB device.
6.7.1 Add User Account
Network shares enable users to access folders and files on USB
devices.
Create user accounts for the network shares and decide, if you
want to protect some shares through user name and password or
if any user within the LAN can access the share(s).
It is best to set up the users for the network shares according to
the user management in your LAN.
To protect a network share set up a password.
To assign one network share to one user, set up this user (and a
password).
To allow access for all users assign the guest account to this
network share.
To add a new user account click on ADD.
Enter a user name and a password (twice).
To save the settings, click on SAVE.
To cancel the dialog, click on CANCEL. The previous page will be
displayed.
If an error occurs you will see an error message (red frame).
