Setting network access to MBL device by password

Hi,

Is there a possibility to set up an access to the MBL by password?

I mean, after typing \mybooklive\ in windows explorer I want to see a window with login and password fields.

I’ve already set ssh and logged as root.

Thank you!

Of course.   Any private share will require a user ID and password to access it.

Thank you, but that’s not what I ment.

Let’s say I want a whole device to be private. I’ve got the Network window opened and a list of computers in the network, right? I double click MyBookLive device to see the shares and thats the moment I want to see the login window.

Any ideas?

I dont think thats possible. I think what your asking is quite advanced for a product that is designed for use at home. 

You might be able to restrict access by IP address though, but dont quote me on that!

No, windows is controlling that, not the MBL.   And Windows isn’t going to ask for credentials until it knows which share you’re trying to access.
