Enter the desired settings, then click [OK].
Notes:
• Repeat steps 1 and 3 for each user in the group.
• Usernames may contain up to 20 alphanumeric characters, hyphens (-), underscores (_), periods (.), !, #, &, @, $, *,
^, and %. Do not use a symbol as the first character.
• If the user ID is left blank, a user ID will be automatically assigned. Use numbers between 1000 and 1999 to set a
user ID manually. Make sure that user IDs are unique.
• If you log in with a username, you can check the TeraStation name, IP address, workgroup, and drive status, and
you can change your own password.
• User descriptions may contain up to 75 bytes (UTF-8) alphanumeric characters, hyphens (-), underscores (_), and
spaces. Do not use a symbol and space as the first character.
• When setting users with access privileges, a maximum of 300 users can be registered in the TeraStation.
• Passwords (include administrator) may contain up to 20 bytes (UTF-8) alphanumeric characters and the
following characters: - _ @ ! # $ % & ' ( ) * + , . / ; < > = ? [ ] ^ { } | ~. Do not use a symbol other than an underscore
(_) as the first character.
• The username and password on your TeraStation account should be the same as for your account in Windows.
If they are different, you may not be able to access shared folders with access restrictions. For example,
with Windows 7, Vista, Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows Server 2003, and Windows Server 2008, if the
usernames are different, a screen is displayed for entering the Windows username and password, but even if
you enter the correct credentials, you will still not be able to access the shared folder. For best results, use the
same username and password for accounts in both Windows and the TeraStation.
• Deleting or adding users repeatedly may cause quotas to not work properly. Even with data copied by backup,
disk quotas my not work properly if there are duplicate user IDs or group IDs. If this happens, fix the problem
using one of the methods below.
- Change all usernames and group names to unique values.
- Copy the files from the TeraStation to a different drive, delete the original files, then copy the files back to the
