In local authentication mode, you can remove any user except the guest user. In
Active Directory authentication mode, you an remove any Linux user or any Mac
user not running Mac OS X, but you cannot remove any Windows/Mac OS X user.
Those 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.
To remove a user:
1. In the navigation bar, click Users.
2. Select the radio button next to the user that you want to remove.
3. Click Remove.
Note:
If the storage system uses Active Directory authentication mode
and you select a Windows/Mac OS X user, this button displays dimmed.
4. When prompted to confirm the removal, click OK.
The user no longer displays in the list on the Users page.
Do this
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 the
IP address or computer name text box, you can use the
wildcard characters * and ? to indicate a range of names. For
example, client* or client? would include all computers in
the subnet whose name begins with client. *.company.com
would include all computers in the 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.
