User & Access - Access Control: Apple
Once logical volumes have been created, local, or NIS, users or user groups can be assigned to have access to specific logical volumes. By
default, all users are given access to a new logical volume. You can assign exclusive access rights to a logical volume to one user group or
individual user. Furthermore, you can specify an individual user, who is part of a user group, to have higher or lower access level than the rest
of the group.
This section controls the access control at the directory level. For sub-directory and file level access control, user must assign them directly to
the sub-directory, or file, from the host.
Assign Access Control
To assign users and/or user groups access to a logical volume, follow the steps below:
1. Select the logical volume that you wish to give user access to from the Select Logical Volume drop-down list.
2. Select the users and/or user groups from the All Users list.
3. Select one of the following access levels:
• Allow – read, write, and delete file privileges to the selected logical volume
• Read/Write – read and write files to the selected logical volume. Users will not be able to delete files.
• Read Only – read privileges to the selected logical volume. Users will not be able to add new files, modify files or delete
files.
• Deny – all access is denied to the selected logical volume for the user. This is necessary when you wish to give access to
a user group except for an individual user within that group. Any individual user within a user group can be assigned with
different access level from the rest of the user group by assigning a different access level to the individual user for the
logical volume. The individual user access level takes priority over the user group access level. User will not be able to
read, write or delete any files within the logical volume.
4. Click on Add.
5. To remove a user or user group from the logical volume, select them from the Assigned Users list and click on Remove.
6. Repeat steps 2 through 5 above to add or delete additional users and/or user groups to the logical volume.
In addition to above options, following options can be set when necessary:
• Casefold option: Casefold option handles how casenames should be mangled. Default Setting is NONE.
o tolower-: Lower cases names in both directions.
o toupper-: Upper cases names in both directions.
o xlatelower-: Client sees lower case, server sees upper case.
o xlateupper- Client sees upper case, server sees lower case.
• mswindows: Forces filename restrictions imposed by MS WinXX, and invokes the MS default codepage (iso8859-1) if one is not
already specified.
• prodos: Provides compatbility with Apple II clients
• nohex: Disables :hex translations for anything except for dot files. This option makes the / character illegal.
• crlf conversion: Enables crlf translation for TEXT files.
• usedots: Don’t do :hex translation for dot files. This makes all files such as .Parent, .Apple* illegal. Dot files created on the server
side will be invisible to the client.
• read only: Specifies the share as being read only for all users.
• limitsize: Hack for older Macintoshes using newer Appleshare clients to limit the disk size reporting to 2 GB.
To exit and return to the home page, click on Close.
Note: Mac/Apple clients can access the NAS share via SMB/CIFS or AFP/AppleTalk. It is up to the end user to pick whichever method that
he/she feels comfortable for his/her applications.
