Page 120 highlights

Managing the Shares Configuring the NSS for FTP Access 6 STEP 9 To set a maximum transfer rate for anonymous users, enter it in KB/s in the Maximum Anonymous Transfer Rate field. For no maximum, set the rate as 0. STEP 10 To disconnect the FTP connection after a period of time when the connection is idle, select the number of minutes in the Disconnect Idle Sessions drop-down menu. STEP 11 To disconnect an FTP connection after a certain length of time has passed during a file transfer, select the number of minutes in the Disconnect Stalled Transfers drop-down menu. STEP 12 To set the maximum number of FTP connections that can be made from a single client IP address, enter the number in the Max Connections per IP Address field. (To leave this as an unlimited number of connections, leave this field blank.) Note that the maximum FTP connections cannot exceed the maximum FTP connections allowed by the connection profile; see the "Configuring the Connection Profile" section on page119. For example, if you set the connection profile to Standard, the maximum FTP connections is two. STEP 13 Set up the defaults for how file permissions are set when a file is created using FTP via the following Default File Creation Attributes checkboxes. Note that unlike CIFS permissions which are set on a share-by-share basis, the FTP permissions are global to all files and folders created via FTP regardless of the share to which they are assigned. • Group Readable: Members of the user who created the file or folder's primary group have read permission. • Group Writable: Members of the user who created the file or folder's primary group have write permission. • Everyone Readable: All authenticated users can view the file. • Everyone Writable: All authenticated users have write permission to the file. STEP 14 Set the Allow users to delete or rename other users' files and folders field as required. This field determines if users who have write permission to a share can delete or rename files or folders within that share that they do not own. It is important to consider interoperability with applications such as MS Word 2007 and Photoshop. For example, if this field is not selected and you gave a user write permissions to a file and that user tried to open, edit, and save the file, the save would fail due to the fact that Word sets up a temporary file and then attempts to delete it and replace it with the new version. Not all applications work this way. It is important to consider the applications used by your users to determine how you want to set this field.

STEP 9
To set a maximum transfer rate for anonymous users, enter it in KB/s in the
Maximum Anonymous Transfer Rate
field. For no maximum, set the rate as 0.
STEP 10
To disconnect the FTP connection after a period of time when the connection is
idle, select the number of minutes in the
Disconnect Idle Sessions
drop-down
menu.
STEP 11
To disconnect an FTP connection after a certain length of time has passed during
a file transfer, select the number of minutes in the
Disconnect Stalled Transfers
drop-down menu.
STEP 12
To set the maximum number of FTP connections that can be made from a single
client IP address, enter the number in the
Max Connections per IP Address
field.
(To leave this as an unlimited number of connections, leave this field blank.) Note
that the maximum FTP connections cannot exceed the maximum FTP connections
allowed by the connection profile; see the
”Configuring the Connection Profile”
section on page119
. For example, if you set the connection profile to
Standard
,
the maximum FTP connections is two.
STEP 13
Set up the defaults for how file permissions are set when a file is created using
FTP via the following
Default File Creation Attributes
checkboxes. Note that unlike
CIFS permissions which are set on a share-by-share basis, the FTP permissions
are global to all files and folders created via FTP regardless of the share to which
they are assigned.
Group Readable:
Members of the user who created the file or folder’s
primary group have read permission.
Group Writable:
Members of the user who created the file or folder’s
primary group have write permission.
Everyone Readable:
All authenticated users can view the file.
Everyone Writable:
All authenticated users have write permission to the file.
STEP 14
Set the
Allow users to delete or rename other users’ files and folders
field as
required. This field determines if users who have write permission to a share can
delete or rename files or folders within that share that they do not own. It is
important to consider interoperability with applications such as MS Word 2007
and Photoshop. For example, if this field is not selected and you gave a user write
permissions to a file and that user tried to open, edit, and save the file, the save
would fail due to the fact that Word sets up a temporary file and then attempts to
delete it and replace it with the new version. Not all applications work this way. It is
important to consider the applications used by your users to determine how you
want to set this field.
