Windows Server 2012 exam question Need help with your preparation? Let me know what you're working on!
You're aiming to secure your NAS setup by controlling who can access specific folders. Since you can't set up IP-based restrictions yet, consider configuring permissions through file system access controls. You can use Windows Server features like ACLs (Access Control Lists) or group policies to restrict folder access at the directory level. This way, only authorized users will have permission to view or modify their assigned folders. If you need step-by-step guidance on implementing these settings, just let me know!
You must determine that thing (it's really tough) and then click right-click on the folder, choose sharing, and go to advanced settings.
The keemo mentioned a domain simplifies things, though it isn't mandatory. Install Windows server just like any other Windows setup, and create shares in the same manner. Ensure you have one user for your mother and another for yourself—if you own a domain, connect your other devices to the domain and you’re ready to go. Access-based enumeration will conceal files that the user doesn’t have permission to read or write. Configure your folders with these NTFS permissions: Everyone – Deny, Your account – full control. You’ll see your own folders, while others can’t view them. If your mother’s folders are set up identically, she’ll only see her own directories.
Launch the dashboard app and navigate to users, then set up new accounts and assign their directories. This task has been a while since I performed it—it might have been introduced only in Essentials R2.
