Power Modes

The LinkStation can automatically turn on and o with your computers. To use this feature, install NAS Navigator2 on each computer and then set the Power Mode Switch to the AUTO position.
LS-VL, XHL, CHL LS-WVL, WXL LS-WSXL
AUTO: When the switch is in the AUTO position, the LinkStation automatically turns o when all
computers on the network with NAS Navigator2 turn o. If any computer on the network is powered on, the LinkStation automatically powers on as well.
ON: The LinkStation stays on, even when all computers are o.
OFF: Turns the LinkStation o.
Notes: Never disconnect power from the LinkStation while the switch is in the ON position.
The Auto Power Mode may not work in some network environments. If this occurs, move the switch to the ON position to use the LinkStation.
After all computers are powered down, it may take several minutes for the LinkStation to shut down.
During initial setup, leave the Power Mode Switch in the ON position. Do not move it to the AUTO position until the unit is set up and NAS Navigator2 is installed on all computers that will access the LinkStation.
If a power outage disconnects power from the LinkStation while it’s in Auto Power Mode, will not power on automatically when power is restored. Move the Power Mode Switch to the ON position to power on the LinkStation. Once the unit has booted, you can move the Power Mode Switch back to the AUTO position.
Immediately after the Power Mode Switch is switched to the AUTO position, it will not shut down for at least 5 minutes even if all PCs on the network are turned o.
The LinkStation models with multiple hard drives do not shut down during RAID initialization or rebuild.

Adding shared folders

By default, the LinkStation includes one shared folder “share”. You may add additional folders as follows.
1
2
You have created a new share.
To protect your data from accidental deletion, you may enable a [Recycle Bin] for the share (not available for Apple and FTP connections). Deleted data in a shared folder will be temporarily moved to the [Recycle Bin] folder. To recover deleted data, open the [Recycle Bin] folder and move les.
1 In the Web Admin interface, click [Shared
Folders] - [Folder Setup].
2 Click [Create Folder].
1 Enter desired characteristics for the new share.
Note: If you would like to copy the settings of an
existing folder, select a source folder from the [Copy Settings From] dropdown.
2 Click [Save].
Read-Only shares cannot be modied or deleted. To make a Read-Only share, select [Read Only] in the [Shared Folder] screen and click [Save].
Notes:
• By default, [shared Folder Attributes] is congured as [Read & Write].
• A shared folder set to [Read Only] cannot be written by any users or groups, even if they have read and write permissions. Read-Only folders are read-only for all users.
• Read Only shares are described as [Read Only] in the shared folder description.
LinkStation User Manual 24
Using your LinkStation
Notes:
• When using multi-byte character(such as Japanese), make folder or le names with 80 bytes(UTF-8) or less. You may not be able to copy a folder or a le whose name length is more than 80 bytes.
• You cannot set hidden or read-only attributes to subfolders or les on the LinkStation.
• If non-Roman alphabetical folder names or workgroup names do not display properly, rename the folder or workgroup with Roman alphabetical characters.
• Please do not use any of the following words as the name of a shared folder. These words are reserved for internal use by the LinkStation:
info, spool, usbdisk1, usbdisk2, usbdisk3, usbdisk4, lost+found, global, printers, homes, lp, auth, test, ram, disk1, disk2, disk3, disk4, array1, array2, msdfs_root, mt-daapd
• The following characters are handled dierently by Mac OS X and Windows. Avoid using these characters when sharing data between Mac OS X and Windows:
• The following characters are not displayed correctly by Windows, or by a Mac connected to the LinkStation via SMB. Avoid their use in le names that will be used with the LinkStation.
• Never turn o the LinkStation or unplug its Ethernet cable while data is being written. Doing so may result in an incomplete le that cannot be opened or deleted. If this happens, restart the LinkStation, delete the le, then retry copying the le.
• Your OS may update the date and timestamp stored on the LinkStation’s hard drive, or on a USB drive connected to the LinkStation. This might result in inaccurate information for date-created or date-accessed data on the LinkStation.
• In the Web Admin interface, or from a Mac OS X 10.6 or later, drive size is displayed in gigabytes, where 1 gigabyte = 1,000,000,000 bytes. This is also how drive capacity is expressed on your LinkStation’s packaging. However, if you check the drive size from an older Mac, or from a Windows computer, it may display the size of the drive in gibibytes, where 1 gibibyte = 1,073,741,824 bytes. Since a gibibyte is larger than a gigabyte, the displayed drive capacity will be a smaller number than the actual drive size.

Access Restrictions

There are several ways to restrict access to users of a LinkStation.
Access restrictions for Users and/or Groups on the LinkStation
The next page describes how to congure access restrictions for local users and/or groups.
Access Restrictions on NT Domain
Follow the procedure on page 29 to congure.
Access Restrictions on Active Directory
Follow the procedure on page 31 to congure.
Notes:• This chapter describes the procedure to use Active Directory with Windows 2000 Server,
Server 2003, and Server 2008.
• Depending on the security settings, the LinkStation may not be able to join, or may be
able to join but may not be authenticated by a domain. In such a case, it is recommended to restrict access by delegating authority.
Access restrictions by using the Delegate Authority server feature
Follow the procedure on page 33 to congure.
Notes:• Permissions are assigned to shared folders. Child folders in a shared folder inherit their
permissions from the parent folder. If a le or folder is moved into a new shared folder with dierent permissions from the folder it was originally in, it will now have the access restrictions from the new shared folder.
• When accessing the LinkStation from Windows via SMB, changing permissions from the
folder’s security tab in the properties screen of a folder is not supported. Access restrictions for shared folders on the LinkStation can only be congured from within the Web Admin interface.
