ReadyNAS for Home RAIDiator 4.2
Basic User and Group Concepts
Users are the people to whom you grant access to your storage system. When you want to
allow someone to access your ReadyNAS system, you create a user account for that person.
The ReadyNAS storage system administrator sets up user accounts and decides which
shares each user is permitted to access.
If your ReadyNAS storage system is being used at home, you might decide that each
member of the family should have a user account, but that only the parents can access
financial data stored on your system. You might decide that all accounts can access photos
and music stored on the system. You can set the appropriate permissions for each user.
The ReadyNAS system administrator can set up groups to make it easier to manage large
numbers of users. For example, if your ReadyNAS storage system is being used in a
business, you might decide that every employee should have a user account. However, you
might decide that only users in the accounting department can access information in the
accounting share, but that all users can access data stored in the company benefits share.
You can create a group for each department and place all users in the appropriate group or
groups.
