Setting Up Security

To control who can access the
files and folders stored on the
server, you must set up
security restrictions. To set up
security on your server, use
the settings on the Security
menu in the Administration
Tool.
The default
Caution
configuration allows all users
on your network full access to
all disks on the server. If you
have Web access enabled, this could include Internet users as well, depending on
your network setup. If you intend to store sensitive data, you should define tighter
security restrictions before putting the data on the server.
Setting up security for the files and folders on your Snap Server consists of the
following three steps:
Define the Snap Server users

Defining Snap Server Users

Before you can give or deny access to a server, you need to identify the users. The
Snap Server by default provides a set of pre-defined users and groups. Your server
also allows you to use pre-existing Network Users or to define Local Users and
Groups.
Pre-defined Users and Groups
Snap Servers ship with the following predefined local users and groups that allow
administrative and guest user access to the server. These local users and groups
cannot be modified or deleted.
Default Local Users and Groups
admin
guest
The admin user account is used to log into the Administration Tool. The
default password for the admin account is also admin.
The guest user account requires no password.
