Title: Delete unshared folders from Volume_1
Post by: net_tech on December 16, 2010, 08:01:21 AM

I have a few folders created in the root directory of my DNS-323 and was wondering if there is a way to delete them?

If i share them out and then delete, the share gets deleted, but folders stay.

This is one I can answer

Set up your admin user in ftp for root access

FTP in as admin

CD Volume_1
ls -l (to see directories)
RMDIR the folder you want to delete.

Or simply download WINScp, a free FTP client

Hope this helps

You can Telnet in, but be very very careful

got it!

I used FAR as my FTP Client. http://www.farmanager.com/

Thanks

Also when I created a new user and allowed access to the root folder, the user didn't show up under
FTP ACCESS LIST, but I was able to log in as delete the folders.

You also don't have to use FTP. Create a share in the DNS 323's web interface to Volume_1 or Volume_2, access the share/mount it and delete the folders.
