Adding Groups - Buffalo LS410D User Manual

• The user ID should be a number from 1000 to 1999. Each user ID should be unique. If this field is left blank, a user
ID is assigned automatically.
• When you log in to Settings as a registered user, you can see the LinkStation's name, IP address, workgroup, and
disk status, and modify the password.
• Do not duplicate user IDs, group IDs, usernames, or group names. Each should be distinct and unique.
• The description may contain up to 75 alphanumeric characters, hyphens (-), underscores (_), and spaces. Do not
use a symbol or space as the first character.
• When setting users with access privileges, a maximum of 300 users, including "admin" and "guest", can be regis-
tered in the LinkStation.
• Passwords may contain up to 20 alphanumeric characters and the following characters: - _ @ ! # $ % & ' ( ) * + , . / ;
< > = ? " [ ] ^ { } | ~. Do not use a symbol other than an underscore (_) as the first character.
• Use the same username and password for both Windows and the LinkStation or you may not be able to access
shared folders.
• If a user belongs to multiple groups, the most strict access restrictions will apply. For example, if a user is added to
a group with read and write access, and also to a read-only group, the user will effectively have read-only access.

To confirm the owner of a shared folder from Windows XP, from the Properties screen of the file or folder, open a new
