Hello,

 

I currently have five disks in my unraid server.

 

I would like to password protect them, so they are not available to everyone on my wifi network.

 

I am not currently using the "share" feature. I just have five disks listed as: disk1, disk2, disk3, disk4, disk5.

 

I read though the tutorial and came acreoss the "User Level Share Security", but I cannot find the setting to enable it.

 

I am using UnRaid Server Pro, along with SimpleFeatures plugin.

 

Thanks in advance!

when you click the disk name on the main unraid webgui page, you can setup the sharing of that disk.

there you can select, which users should be able to access the disk.

Thanks for the quick reply.

 

I tried both the Secure and Private security options, but I'm not being prompted for a password when I try to access the disk.

Is a user enabled for access?

Yes, I created a new user and assigned read/write access.

Does the new user share name and password with the Windows login?

The name is different from my Windows logon. I do not use a password for Windows.

Thanks for the quick reply.

 

I tried both the Secure and Private security options, but I'm not being prompted for a password when I try to access the disk.

 

So anyone can access or no one can access?

Anyone can access.

Restart the server and verify the user and security settings.

The reboot fixed it. Thanks!

 

Can you tell me the difference between Secure and Private?

just look at the possible settings... with secure, everyone can at least read. only selected users can write. with private, you can select which user can read, which can write and which don't have access at all

This is strange...

 

I created a user/password.

 

Set each disk as private. Hit apply.

 

Next to my user name, I selected Read/Write.

 

Rebooted the server.

 

4/5 disks display a user/pass prompt, but when I enter my user/pass it doesn't work.

 

1/5 disks doesn't ask for a user/pass. It just says I don't have permission to access.

Run the new permissions utility. Leave the page open and let it run overnight.

The new permissions utility has completed. I still cant login with the user/pass I set.

Does the domain matter?
