Share
In this section of the web management surface is defined how the HDD storage is offered
to the network. Here you can create folders, so called shares, and define the access
rights for the different users or groups towards it. For each folder created here the
Windows (Samba), FTP and NFS Access can be defined and restricted.
The share management could be found selecting:

The terminology "share" is used for HDD folders made accessible to the network. This terminology is just used in the
Windows/Samba and NFS context. FTP does not use shares to structure the storage offered the Network. How a share is made
accessible to the operating system on client side depends on the operating system. At Windows and MAC each share is
integrated in the local storage treatment like an own drive. Linux integrates in its directory structure at a defined mounting
point. The folder exposed as share is then visible and usable with all it's contend (directories or files) as an own drive
respectively directory.
