• Don’t use the following unsupported characters in shared folder names, workgroup names, or filenames:
• File and folder names may contain up to 255 single-byte characters.
• Configure hidden and read-only file attributes in Settings. Configuring them from within Windows is not
supported and may cause unexpected behavior.
• Folder and workgroup names whose names contain non-Roman characters may not be displayed correctly.
• If shared folders are accessed from a Mac, information files for the Mac may be generated automatically. Do not
delete these files. If they are deleted using Windows, this may prevent further access from a Mac.
• The LinkStation belongs to the default zone in AppleShare Server; the zone cannot be specified.
• When files are copied to the LinkStation or to a USB drive connected to the LinkStation, file information such as
date created, date modified, and other date information may be updated or changed.
• Hard drive capacity is shown in Settings in actual gigabytes. The Properties window in Windows may show GiB
instead, which will be a smaller number.
• If any settings are changed during a file transfer, the transfer process may abort.
• File copying to the LinkStation is protected by a journaling file system. If the Ethernet cable is disconnected or a
power outage occurs while copying data, the following may occur:
- Preset data such as the LinkStation name, users, and groups may be erased.
- An incomplete file may be copied and the file can no longer be deleted. If this happens, restart the LinkStation,
delete the file, and perform the copy operation again.
• After a drive is formatted, the “% Used” and Amount Used” in Settings will not be 0. This is because some drive
space is used for the system area.
Active Directory
If an Active Directory environment, the LinkStation uses account information from the Active Directory domain
controller to set access restrictions for LinkStations shared folders. There is no need to perform individual account
management for the LinkStation. If multiple LinkStations are installed on the network, the account information is
centrally managed in Active Directory, greatly reducing the operations required for installation and management.
Notes:
• The LinkStation supports a domain environment with a maximum 1000 users and 1000 groups. 10,000 users and
10,000 groups can be downloaded from the domain controller but are not supported.
• If usernames or group names from Active Directory include multi-byte characters, you will not be able to
configure access restrictions for them.
