Dell PowerStore Configuring SMB

Configure an FTP or SFTP sharing protocol

You can configure FTP or FTP over SSH (SFTP) after the NAS server has been created.

Prerequisites

Passive mode FTP is not supported.

About this task

FTP access can be authenticated using the same methods as SMB. Once authentication is complete, access is the same as SMB for security and permission purposes. If the format is domain@user or domain\user, SMB authentication is used. SMB authentication uses the Windows domain controller.

Steps

  1. Select the Storage > NAS Servers > [nas server] > Sharing Protocols > FTP tab.
  2. Under FTP, if Disabled in on, slide the button to Enable.
  3. Optionally also enable SSH FTP. Under SFTP, if Disabled in on, slide the button to Enable.
  4. Select which type of authenticated users have access to the files.
  5. Optionally, show the Home Directory and Audit options.
    • Select or clear the Home directory restrictions. If disabled, enter the Default home directory.
    • Select or clear Enable FTP/SFTP Auditing. If checked, enter the directory location of where to save the audit files, and the maximum size allowed for the audit file.
  6. Optionally, Show Messages, and enter a default welcome message, and message of the day.
  7. Optionally, show the Access Control List, and add a list of users, groups, and hosts that are allowed, or denied FTP access.
  8. Select Apply.
