Allow only NTLMv2 authentication:

NTLMv2 stands for NT LAN Manager version 2. When this option is turned on, login to the

shared folders by Microsoft Networking will be allowed only with NTLMv2 authentication.

If the option is turned off, NTLM (NT LAN Manager) will be used by default and NTLMv2

can be negotiated by the client. The default setting is disabled.

Nam e resolution priority:

You can select to use DNS server or WINS server to resolve client host names from IP

addresses. When you set up your NAS to use a WINS server or to be a WINS server, you

can choose to use DNS or WINS first for name resolution. When WINS is enabled, the

default setting is “Try WINS then DNS”. Otherwise, DNS will be used for name resolution

by default.

Station

In an Active Directory environment, the default login formats for the domain users are:

Windows shares: domain\username

FTP: domain+username

File Station: domain+username

AFP: domain+username

When you turn on this option, the users can use the same login name format

(domain\username) to connect to the NAS via AFP, FTP, and File Station.

Autom atically register in DNS:

When this option is turned on and the NAS is joined to

an Active Directory, the NAS will register itself automatically in the domain DNS server.

This will create a DNS host entry for the NAS in the DNS server. If the NAS IP is

changed, the NAS will automatically update the new IP in the DNS server.

Enable trusted dom ains:

Select this option to load the users from trusted Active

Directory domains and specify their access permissions to the NAS in “Privilege Settings”

> “Shared Folders”. (The domain trusts are set up in Active Directory only, not on the

NAS.)
