Using your LinkStation
LinkStation User Manual 34
To allow anonymous access to your FTP share, disable access restrictions on the FTP share.
Congure your FTP client as follows:
• Host Name IP address of the LinkStation
• Username anonymous
• Password any set of characters
• Port 21
Example ftp://192.168.11.150/
• To make your FTP share available from outside your network, you will need to congure
your router and rewall. Consult your router’s documentation for information on how to
allow FTP trac.
• If the LinkStation joins a domain, anonymous users cannot access it.
• Folders created or copied via an AFP connection may not be deleted from the AFP
connection. This is because an automatically generated ".AppleDouble" folder begins
with a dot. To delete these les, use an SMB connection.
• Do not exceed 250 characters for a le/folder name including directory path when you are
creating it by using an FTP connection. Otherwise, you cannot view or delete it in Explorer
or other applications.
