The DiskGO automatically assigns all users to a group named users. It is not necessary to
add users to the users group, and users cannot be deleted from the users group. The net
group command cannot be used to query the members of the users group, but the net
users query returns the same information. For DiskGO devices that are also configured to
support NFS, DiskGO assigns UNIX user IDs (UIDs) and
group IDs (GIDs) to files created through CIFS. User IDs are in the range 35000–40000;
group IDs are in the range 42000–43000. Moreover, setting up permissions on a
Windows platform and copying the file to a DiskGO disables your permissions.
Managing the Domain
Use the Microsoft net user command to add, delete, and modify user accounts. Use the
Microsoft net group command to add, delete, and modify group accounts or to add and
delete users memberships to groups.
Creating a Logon Script
The DiskGO 3.5” Network Hard Drive passes the name of the current user to the logon
script when the script is run. This allows the script to run differently for different users.
Use the “%1” replaceable parameter to access the user name. After you have access to the
netlogon share, you must create the logon script. It must reside within the netlogon share
that the DiskGO automatically creates in the pool given in “Profiles and Scripts Pool.”
You can include directory names within the script name, but the path must be relative
(the path cannot start with a drive letter or a slash). For example, if you type netlogon.bat,
when you have access to the netlogon share, you must create a file named netlogon.bat.
Or if you type scripts/netlogon.bat, you must create both a directory named scripts as well
as the netlogon.bat file.
Note: All files on the DiskGO have permissions for the user who owns the file, a default
primary group, and Everyone. Separate permissions can be added for individual users
using Windows access control list (ACLs). The default primary group is always users and
cannot be changed. For the current release, there is no reason to create a group account.

The User Management page allows an administrator to manage user accounts when
UBSA mode is enabled, and the DiskGO is set up to operate in Workgroup Member
mode.
