Biggest problem MyBookLive

It is not really the biggest problem, but i wanted to get some attention for this issue   :smiley:

Why is it not possible to grant users limit access to the Public share.

Fi. my users may view all movies (public) but i don’t want them to delete the files (limit access)

In my humble opinion is this a very reasonable question…

Please WD have a serious look at this issue, hundreds of WD users are waiting for this option.

Thanks!  :smiley:

Hi Megazip, the purpose o the public folder just as the name says, is to give public access to all that have access to the network. If you want to limit read and write permissions, you can create a private share with that conditions. 

Ichigo thanks for your reply!

I know i can make shares with limit access, but i don’t want users to delete files (accidentally).

Make a secured backup folder of those files on the MBL or on another drive. I know that’s using double the space but…a man’s gotta do what a man’s gotta do!

Yep you are right, a man’s gotta do what a man’s gotta do! :smiley:

 

Thanks!
