User Popup Menu
 


Use this popup menu to choose the users for which you are setting folder access.

Default Access applies to all users with the Default folder access box checked (see below).

Guest Access applies to all users who connect as Guests.

All other entries in the menu are individual users. Users can be added and removed on the User Setup page.





Check this box to allow access to a particular user according to the preferences set for Default Access.





Check this box to allow access only to folders with the checked labels.

Check the label names that you want to allow users access to. Only folders with the labels you check will be visible to connected users.





Check this box to deny access to folders with the checked labels.





Use this to choose the form of folder access allowed for the selected user.

"Registered User" folder - This option allows the user access to all files and folders within the "Registered User" folder. This folder is set on the Folder Access page.

Subfolder with name of user - This option allows the user access to a single folder within the "Registered User" folder. The folder is given the name of the connecting user. If the folder does not exist when the user connects, it is created.

Specific folders - Use this option to give the user access to specific folders on the server. The folders can include entire disks, and folders can be on any mounted volume, including server volumes.
