I have been using WD2go app to generate links to the files in MBL before sharing with my friends
The link looks like this: http://mybooklive.device90008.wd2go.com/api/1.0/rest/file_contents/Public/@#$#@$%^$^%
Is there a way to do this without using the app? Be nice if I can do this via Windows.
As I share the folder contents via email, I was thinking another way would be to create a private share for my friends. With a Standard ID and password.
Can they login and see/download the photos via links in an email? No edit only read.
not by default and/or easily…
Be aware, depending on the option you select, it might void your warranty.
First, these NAS devices have Debian Lenny distribution, so LOTS of options out there. However, due to it, Linux experience and/or willingness to learn/research/test/etc is necessary. In a nutshell, this would be necessary:
If still interested, do the above steps one at a time, baby steps.
and last, I am not a Linux expert nor I have ever done this!!!
I can, however, point you to a place with lots of info:

hi there, thanks alot of your inputs.
i realised the MBL is a great device but of not much use outside e home? we can add private users but cant really share folders with other people via email like how dropbox does. at least not easily.
The development team could work towards a more user friendly experience.
