volume01. These will be the accounts which are allowed to login the NAS using ftp software.

7.6 Accessing from NFS Clients

The security control of the NAS server for NFS clients follows the traditional UNIX-style

trust-host mechanism and UID/GID checking. Follow the steps below to enable NFS support

and export the volume for NFS clients to mount.

1. Enable the UNIX/Linux Network support (the NFS protocol).

Open the administration page and enter the “Network → UNIX/Linux” menu. Check the

“Enable UNIX/Linux Network” check-box and click “Apply”.

2. Go to the “Security → Account → UNIX/Linux Host” page and add the hosts that might be

trusted to access the NAS server.

3. Export the volume to NFS clients.

Go to the “Security → File/Folder” menu. Find the “volume01” entry and click “Create” in the

“Sharing” column (or Modify if the volume has been shared). On the “Property” page, check

the “UNIX/Linux Network” (NFS) check-box and click “Apply”.

4. Enter the “UNIX/Linux Setting” tab. Add NFS clients to the privileged host list. And assign

UID, GID and permission octets to the exported volume.

After the volume is exported, use one of the NFS clients in the privileged host list to mount the

volume. Please login as the root and use the following command to mount “volume01” under

the /mnt directory. mount 192.168.0.100:/volume01 /mnt
