In my case the WebUI that allows domain credentials to be set on shares, the column isn’t wide enough to be of any use – they apparently expect the domain name to be short, because all I see for MYCOMAPNYDOMAIN\USERNAME is “MYCOMPANYDOMAIN\US..” , rendering the AD part useless unless I want to set a perm, test, see what use it was, and so on.
If I could make the selection column wider it would be better, but it’s not enough of an issue to pursue the solution. To get files *to* the device I use a local security account.

From what I recall on the web interface (I can't get to it right now because it's not even up) you do have local security where you would type in a user and then give them a numeric "user id" and set a password, assign them rights, etc. Then there is an option that says to make the user a remote id or something similar that I thought would let them use their domain credentials, but that doesn't work.

Don't you have to set up users on the device itself, or something daft like that, and use their (not very granular) built-in permissions? I could be wrong, I only used a terastation in a work environment once a few years ago, and as I only used it for storing source files the amount of permissions required was pretty negligible On 22 December 2010 15:48, Don Kuhlman <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Right - that's what I think the issue is here - so how do you use it in a small business environment David?

Sorry to jump this thread, but speaking of Buffalo NAS - does anyone have any good information (besides the Buffalo doc and website) on how to get an LS-QL Linkstation Quad to work in an Active Directory environment as a shared target for users to connect to via their domain login? I set it up using their doc to put in the domain name (for the workgroup), DC's IP address, DNS IP, made an open share on it that users are supposed to be able to map to so they get added to the access list and still couldn't connect to it. I searched their forums and knowledge base then called support and they were less than helpful. The guy said that there's an issue with Windows Server 2008 and it's the OS's fault(even though it doesn't work from an XP workstation, 2000 server or 2008 server), then said that we have network issues which is why we can't access the drive from the server or any other client on the lan. This morning the thing isn't even pingable so I can't access it via the web interface...

I have Cavalry USB 2.0/eSATA RAID1 externals drive and being just external SATA it's just as fast as an internal SATA drive. If eSATA is OK just do a web search for "eSATA RAID1 external" I have Buffalo NAS at clients as just extra storage and both solutions work well.

I recently started taking a lot of photos and videos, and I'm realizing that my current storage solution at home isn't going to cut it very soon. Does anyone have a recommendation for a good price/performance RAID enclosure (or populated solution) for home use? I'd like to have 3-4TB available if possible. Thanks, and Happy Holidays!
