Setting Up Security

Chapter 3 Customizing Your Snap Server 25

Assigning Users Access to Files and Folders

If desired, you can assign the following access permissions to specific files and

folders on your Snap Server:

For example, you may have a network share open for full access by EVERYONE.

You can prevent certain files (or folders) from being overwritten by changing their

access rights from “Full Control” to “Read.” You can also control access to

individual files (or folders) by adding users (or groups) with specific rights to the

list of who can access the files (or folders).

To assign access permissions:

1 Click File/Folder Security on the Security menu. The server displays a list of

network shares that you have defined.

2 Browse the contents of the shares to locate files or folders you want to secure.

3 To view and/or modify the security settings for a file or folder, click the

corresponding security icon (it looks like a key).

4 Select the users and groups you wish to add, pick the appropriate security level,

and click

Add to add them to the security list. To change the access permissions

for a user (or group), remove the user (or group) from the list, then re-add it to the

list with the correct settings.

5 When assigning access rights to a folder, you can click Apply this folder’s security

to all sub-files and folders

to propagate the access rights for the folder to all files and

folders it contains.

If your network has over 1000 user and group names, the users may be displayed as

a range, for example [USR_1000..USR_2000]. Select

Expand Range to see all of the

users within the selected range.

No Access User/group is denied access to the file/folder.

Read User/group can only read the contents of the files or folders.

Add User/group can create files and folders but not read or modify them.

Write User/group can create files but not read them.

Add & Read User/group can create and read the files and folders but not modify

them.

Read & Write User/group can read and write files but not delete them.

Change User/group can create, read, modify and delete files and folders, but

cannot change the access rights.

Full Control User/group has full access privileges.
