Chapter 4: Additional Feature Setup

Overview

With a bevy of additional features and services, the N4100+ is so much more
than a mere external hard disk. The sections below show you how you can utilize
your N4100+ to serve files, music, movies, pictures, and more.

FTP Server

N4100+ can act as a FTP server, enabling
users to download and upload files with
their favorite FTP programs. From the
Network menu, choose the FTP item, and
the FTP screen appears. You can change
any of these items and press Apply to
confirm your settings. A description of each
item follows:

password set up on the Users page (Accounts > Users). Access control to each
share folder is set up on the ACL page (Storage > Folder > ACL).
When trying to access N4100+ anonymously, just enter "anonymous" as the
