To allow only file transfers using FTPS (FTP over SSL), click Allow only FTPS
Connections. Also make sure that the Allow Anonymous Access checkbox is
deselected.
To allow anonymous FTP access, click Allow Anonymous Access.
a. If you allow anonymous access, select the volume that you want to set as the
anonymous root directory from the Anonymous Root Directory
drop-down menu.
b. To allow anonymous users to have write access to the NSS, click Anonymous
Upload.
c. To allow anonymous users to download files that have been uploaded by other
anonymous users, make sure that the Allow Download of Uploaded Files
checkbox is selected.
d. To set a maximum transfer rate for anonymous users, enter it in KB/s in the
Maximum Anonymous Transfer Rate field. For no maximum, set the rate as 0.
To disconnect the FTP connection after a period of time when the connection is
idle, select the number of minutes in the Disconnect Idle Sessions drop-down
menu.
To disconnect an FTP connection after a certain length of time has passed during
a file transfer, select the number of minutes in the Disconnect Stalled Transfers
drop-down menu.
To set the maximum number of FTP connections that can be made from a single
client IP address, enter the number in the Max Connections per IP Address field.
To leave this as an unlimited number of connections, leave this field blank.
Set up the defaults for how file permissions are set when a file is created using
FTP through the following Default File Creation Attributes checkboxes. Unlike
CIFS permissions which are set on a share-by-share basis, the FTP permissions
are global to all files and folders created through FTP regardless of the share to
which they are assigned.
•
Group Readable: Members of the user who created the file or folder's
primary group have read permission.
•
Group Writable: Members of the user who created the file or folder's
primary group have write permission.
