User & Access - Local User Management
Local users are those user accounts that are created within EN104L+(B) manually and specifically for access to EN104L+(B) files and folders.
Once local users are created, they can be assigned to logical volumes as individual users or as part of a user group.
Note:
- “Local users” are Windows clients who do not belong to a Windows Domain and Windows Active-Directory, and often, “local
users” are referred to as “Workgroup” users.
- Mac/APF clients are defined as “local users”.
Create Local Users
To create local users, enter the following information for each user:
1. User Name - Enter the first and last name of the user with a maximum of 25 characters.
2. Password - Enter a unique password for the above user between 6-8 alphanumeric characters without spaces. The password is
case-sensitive.
3. Confirm Password - Re-enter the password again to confirm entry.
4. Assign Home Directory - Select this option to provide a home directory for this user. A home directory is a private directory
that only the owner and administrator can see.
5. Logical Volume - Select the Logical Volume to store local user’s home directory.
6. Click on Create to add the user to the local user list.
7. Repeat the steps above to create additional local users.

administrator. Home directory can be accessed by using two methods:
