7.4 Groups

Use the Groups screens to create and manage groups. You can assign users to groups and grant
individual groups access rights to specific shares.
Group Names
Enter a group name from 1 to 32 characters. The first character must be alphabetical (case insensitive,
[A-Z a-z]); numeric characters are not allowed as the first character.
The group name can only contain the following characters:
• Alphanumeric A-z 0-9. Unicode usernames are supported with CIFS logins, but not FTP or web
configurator logins.
• Spaces
• _ [underscores]
• . [periods]
• - [dashes]
Other limitations on group names are:
• All leading and trailing spaces are removed automatically.
• Multiple spaces within names are converted to a single space.
• Group names are case insensitive. The group name cannot be the same (no matter the letter case)
as an existing group. For example, if a group exists with the name 'FAMILY', you cannot create a
group named 'family'.
• The group name cannot be the same as a system group name such as EVERYONE nor be the same as
an existing group. Other reserved groups names that are not allowed are:
• nobody
• root
• everyone
