1. Please configure the NAS server to operate either in the workgroup mode or the domain
mode. Go to the "Network → Windows" menu and select either "Workgroup Mode" or
"Domain Mode". Also specify the workgroup/domain name.
2. Create local accounts if the NAS server is in the workgroup mode. Go to the "Security →
Account → Local Account" page and use the "Add User" or "Add Group" button to create
local accounts.
3. Get domain accounts from the domain controller if the NAS server is in the domain mode.
Go to the "Security → Account → Domain Account" page. Get domain user account for the
domain controller. Next, tick some domain account to be cached in NAS server.
4. Share the volume to network users.
Go to the "Security → File/Folder" menu. Find the "volume01" entry and click "Create" in the
"Sharing" column (or click "Modify" if the volume has been shared). On the "Property" page,
check the "Windows Network" (SMB/CIFS) checkbox and click "Apply".
5. Set the share permissions.
After sharing the volume, specify the access rights of local users/groups and domain
users/groups.
Now Windows users can access the NAS server. They can run the Windows Explorer and
open the path of \\nasserver. The shared folder volume01 will appear in the window.
Windows users can also map a network drive to \\nasserver\volume01 or use the net use
command in the "Command Prompt" window. The command will be like: net use
n:\\nasserver\volume01
