Modifying users
In local authentication mode, f or Windows and Mac OS X users you can change the
password used to access the shared folders, but not the user name. This change
will not affect current connections, bu t will t ake effect the next time the person tries
to connect to a shared folder . (In Active Directory authentication mode, you canno t
modify Windows/Mac OS X users, only Linux/other Mac users.)
For Linux and other Mac users, you can change t he IP address or compu t er name,
bu
t not the computer description. Changing this informa t ion immediately
disconnects that computer from the shared folders.
Note: To change the user name or computer description, you must remove the
existing
user as described in “Removing users” , and then add a new
user with the desired name or description as described in “Adding users”

2 . Select the radio button next to the user that you wan t to modify .
3. Click Edit .
Note: If the storage system uses Active Directory authentica t ion mode
and you select a Windows/Mac OS X user , this button displays dimmed.
