2.5.5 Share and Folder Names

The name can only contain the following characters:
• Alphanumeric (A-z 0-9) and Unicode.
The NSA allows FTP access to shares, folders or files with names encoded in the
UTF-8 (8-bit UCS/Unicode Transformation Format) format. So your FTP client
must support UTF-8 in order to access shares, folders or files on the NSA with
Unicode names.
• Spaces
• _ [underscores]
• . [periods]
• - [dashes]
Other limitations include:
• All leading and trailing spaces are removed automatically.
• Multiple spaces within names are converted to a single space.
• Share names must be unique (they cannot be the same as other share names).
• The NSA creates automatic volume names for external (USB) disk volumes.
These are a type of share, so the share name you configure cannot conflict with
the external (USB) disk volume names. "ExtVol1" or "ExtVol2" are examples of
external (USB) disk volume names.
• Folder names must be unique (they cannot be the same as other folder names).
• The minimum character length of a name is one character, that is a name
cannot be blank.
• The maximum character length of share name is 255 characters.
