Creating a User Account 11
Maxtor Central Axis
If your Central Axis does not appear in the My Drives window, make sure your unit is
completely powered up and connected to the network. The power LED on the front should
shine a solid green and the ethernet LED on the rear should indicate either a green 10/100
MB connection or a 1GB ethernet connection. Further troubleshooting help is available on
the Seagate website at http://support.seagate.com.
Creating a User Account
Anyone connected to your Central Axis can create user accounts on the Central Axis. You
can create public or private (limited access) user accounts and can further customize these
accounts by choosing a set of folders appropriate for either home or business use.
Account Types
Public: All your files are accessible to anyone who has an account on the Central Axis
Private: All your files are password-protected except for those placed in your public folder
to share with others
