Configuring Access Restrictions; Local Users And Groups - Buffalo TeraStation 5010 User Manual

Configuring Access Restrictions

You may restrict access to specific shared folders, including external USB drives.
Notes:
• Access restrictions can be set separately for each shared folder, but not for folders within the shared folders.
• Configure access restrictions through Settings. Configuring access restrictions through Windows is not
supported and may cause unexpected behavior.
• You can also configure users, groups, and shared folders from Easy Admin by clicking Access Restrictions.
• Shared folders with limited access can still be used as backup destinations.
• If you change access restrictions for a user or group while they are accessing files, unexpected behavior may
result.
