Accessing the Storage Windows Users: Accessing the Storage by using FTP 8 Windows Users: Accessing the Storage by using FTP Windows users who have a user profile set up can access any shares to which they have privileges on the NSS storage using CIFS/SMB or FTP. Note that when using FTP to access the NSS storage, users cannot rename folders. To rename a folder, use CIFS or NFS if enabled on the share. NOTE Before your end users can access the shares on the NSS using FTP, the NSS must have FTP access enabled and the individual share must be set up to allow FTP access. To access the NSS storage using FTP: STEP 1 From your FTP client application, connect to the NSS. Enter the IP address or hostname of the NSS. For more information about using your FTP client application, refer to its documentation. STEP 2 Enter your username and password when prompted by your FTP client. When your FTP client has logged in, a list of accessible shares appears as individual directories. STEP 3 Depending on your share privileges, you can begin using the NSS storage.

To access the NSS storage through CIFS/SMB: STEP 1 From the Finder's Go menu, click Connect to Server. STEP 2 Enter "smb:///. (Where the information in the brackets is meant to be replaced with the applicable information. Do not type the brackets.) Click the "+" sign to save the NSS address to the Favorite Servers list so that the next time you log in you just need to select the address from the list.
