External IP Synology Nas

Lord Alibaski · 29 Feb 2016 at 16:53

Need a little help with setting up NAS so I can share folders via http or ftp via browser.

I've gone through all these settings on this page and had no luck at all.

I did get access using my local IP but can't get it to work via an external IP, I just haven't figured it out where I'm going wrong.

Synology support are useless emailed them 5 days ago and had no reply.

Thanks for any help

This is where I am struggling at the moment.

I've got the virginmedia superhubac and I don't know what settings to add on this hub.

I used the NAS own router configuration settings as well

Hope you can help me futher would be appreciated.

The main objective of this is to let friends grab files that I share from my home NAS via http or ftp but mainly I want all of them using their browsers and not an ftp client.

I can't get it to work.

I've had it showing once in the broswer via my local IP but that isn't working anymore.

I want it so they can see the files like this

@ zoomee

I couldn't get it working like that the other day, thought I did something wrong but it was synologys fault for some reason the ddns server wasn't working for me but they fixed it right away and now it's working perfectly fine.

It's not the way I wanted it but it will do at least I will have more control over it just adding users who I want to view it.

Though I've got it set up and I only wanted them to see 1 folder inside they can see the one I created for them but they can also see the home folder (nothing in there so I'm not bothered) but I can't work out how to hide the home folder from them.

Cheers m8 I will have a look at it later see if I can find how to disable it or if that DS note application is turned on or not.

Thanks for all your help and advice.

@ zoomie

Sorry to bother you again m8 but one more little problem.

On the permissions side of things can you remove all these permissions from users so they can only see the download option

They don't have permission to do anything else just that it would be nice for them to only see the download option.

Thanks
