UNIX and Linux users who have a user profile set up can access any shares to
which they have privileges on the NSS storage using NFS or FTP. Note that when
using FTP to access the NSS storage, users cannot rename folders. To rename a
folder, use CIFS or NFS if enabled on the share.
Before your end users can access the shares on the NSS using FTP, the NSS
network filters must be set up to allow FTP access. The individual share must be
also be set up to allow FTP access.
To access the NSS storage using FTP:
Open your FTP client application.
Enter the NSS hostname/IP address.
Enter any other required settings. If using FTPS, ensure that the client is set to use
Explicit FTPS. For more help using the FTP client, refer to the FTP client
documentation.
Enter your username and password when prompted by the FTP client.
Depending on your share privileges, you can begin using the NSS storage.
