I tried to connect my SmartStor as a network drive using SmartSYNC, but
Windows displayed an error message.
There might be an IP address conflict between the SmartStor and another
device on your network. See your Network Administrator for assistance.
I cannot log into the SmartStor with through the AD Domain.
Be sure you use a “domain name\user name” when you log into the
SmartStor using SMB, FTP, or AFP. You must use the “\” character.
Many FTP clients do not support a space in the domain name or user name.
Also, the SmartStor does not support a user home directory.
How does the SmartStor integrate into an NIS Domain?
If the NIS domain account or group name is the same as the SmartStor, the
SmartStor will apply them to its account or group.
If the SmartStor joins a NIS Domain, joining only affects the NFS service and
Quota settings. The other services are not affected.
How are non-ASCII folder file names displayed?
The SmartStor supports Unicode, so you can use non-ASCII characters in
your folder names. Windows 98 and ME do not support Unicode, so they
cannot display your folder names properly. But you can still access your
folders.
I tried to copy a Windows shortcut to my network drive, but an error
message says there is not enough free disk space.
Normally, you can copy a Windows shortcut to a network drive. However, if
the network drive is a USB drive or memory stick with FAT32 file format, the
SmartStor might not recognize the shortcut and prevent you from copying it.
If this situation occurs, choose a different folder in which to copy the
shortcut.
Does SmartStor support a USB drive or memory stick with FAT16 file
format?
No. If you attach the FAT16 USB drive or memory stick to SmartStor, you
can see the files on it. But if you attempt to copy files to the drive or memory
stick, Windows might display a disk full message.
How do I remove a USB drive or memory stick from the SmartStor?
Be sure that no files on the USB drive or memory stick are still open. Then
unplug the USB drive or memory stick from the SmartStor. The SmartStor
automatically unmounts the USB drive or memory stick.
