Removing Users

In local authentication mode, you can remove any user except the guest user. In Active Directory
authentication mode, you can remove a Linux user or a Mac user not running Mac OS X, but you cannot
remove Windows or Mac OS X users. Windows or Mac OS X users can be removed only on the Active
Directory server.
If you remove a user who is currently connected to the storage system, that user remains connected until
the user disconnects from the shared folder or shuts down the computer.
Caution: When you remove a Windows or Mac OS X user, the folder whose name matches that user
name is automatically deleted. If you are removing the user simply to change the person's
user name, first have the user copy any data from this folder to another location to ensure that
it is not lost.
To remove a user:
Enter the password for accessing the shared folders. (You must enter the password a
second time to confirm it.)
Note: If the user name and password specified here are the same as the person's
Windows user name and password, the person will not be prompted to provide a user
name and password when accessing the shared folders.
Enter the computer's IP address or the actual computer name in the computer's system
configuration.
A single user can actually represent multiple computers. In IP address or computer
name, you can use the wildcard characters * and ? to indicate a range of names. For
example, or

name begins with
client
domain company.com. However, these wildcards cannot be used with IP addresses.
Note: If the user is currently connected to a shared folder, changing this information will
disconnect the user.
