The NAS 4.0 Unit Boot Process Upon powering up the unit, the status LED will blink at first between bright and dim, then remain dark for a few moments, then begin to blink between bright and dark for a while and finally settle down to glowing steadily. Once this pattern is complete the unit is ready to communicate. This process normally takes about a minute or less, but may take longer depending on the complexity of the configuration, storage and LAN connections. With the 240 possible file

Finally, review and confirm the settings: After clicking on the Update settings button, Initial Setup is complete. Sharing Files Using the NAS 4.0 SMB (Windows Sharing) Connecting to the NAS for direct file access through Windows Explorer is very similar to sharing files between Windows systems. Typing “\\ADDNAS” (or the NAS 4.0 unit's hostname if changed from the default) or the double-backslash followed by the NAS 4.0 unit's IP address is the easiest way to gain direct access quickly.

FTP Server The NAS 4.0 FTP server works by offering a private “home” folder to each user with exclusive access to the resources through FTP. FTP cannot be used to access shares defined under the Sharing tab in the web interface. Each user will also have access to their private FTP space using SMB. Getting Started with MLDonkey MLDonkey is a powerful, multi-protocol Peer-to-Peer (P2P) client included with the NAS 4.0 unit. The features and capabilities of this tool are beyond the scope of thi

Note: The MLDonkey admin account is not the same account as the NAS 4.0 unit's web interface admin account. It is recommended that the password matches for simplicity, but not necessary. MLDonkey will perform most of the remaining steps automatically and connect to some servers on the Donkey network. To download a file using the Donkey network, begin by clicking search, then enter some criteria and click the Search button. After a query message appears, click the "Search Results" button. T

Configure the Network Settings Starts the network configuration wizard. Choosing Automatic will configure the NAS 4.0 unit as a DHCP client and the configuration wizard will skip to the end. Choosing Manual configuration will proceed to Step 2. Step 2 configures the NAS 4.0 unit's static IP address and subnet mask.

The next step is to configure network connections. The gateway is usually the internal IP address for the router the NAS 4.0 unit is connected to. DNS entries are usually the same as used by the router's external network configuration (determined by your ISP). Setting an NTP server will synchronize the NAS 4.0 unit to a time server, usually on the Internet. This can be a name or IP address. Use the keywords “free NTP servers” on your preferred search engine if you wish to configure this fea

Step 1 is to define the name of the share. The share name will become the folder name on the drive. Note: The shared folder name will be written to disk using all capital letters. If an existing folder of the same name appears and is not all capital letters, the NAS 4.0 considers that not a match and writes the same folder name in all capital letters anyway. This can cause unpredictable results if the drive is subsequently connected to a computer. If a folder exists of the same name with al

Step 3 is to set the initial permissions for the new share. A permission setting for “Everyone” as well as each individual user is listed, with the default permission set to None.

It is however possible to delete the share without destroying any data: simply disconnect the drive physically from the NAS 4.0 unit before proceeding. Update Security Settings Changes permissions for a share for each user and the general permi
