A local user account is an account that exists on the server appliance itself and grants users
access to its resources. The MaxAttach NAS 6000 can also be configured to grant access to
domain users and groups. Domain users and groups are those that exist in a Microsoft
Windows NT 4 or Microsoft Active Directory™ domain
Users are important in Microsoft Windows Powered security because you can assign
permissions to limit the ability of users to perform certain actions. A permission is a rule
associated with an object, usually a file, folder, or share, that regulates which users, and in
what manner those users can access the object.
Please remember the following when creating local users on the MaxAttach NAS 6000:

Passwords
You can type a password containing up to 127 characters. However, if you are using
Microsoft® Windows® 2000 on a network that also has computers using Microsoft
Windows 95 or Microsoft Windows 98, consider using passwords that contain fewer than
14 characters. Windows 95 and Windows 98 support passwords that contain up to 14
characters. If your password is longer, you may not be able to log on to your network from
those computers.
