The QNAP NAS TS-231 forms the basis of our local network shares and backup

2x 2TB Western Digital "Red" drives in RAID 1 configuration = 1.8 TB storage

locally on the network, it uses DHCP, with two ethernet nics (dual-homed) Access it at 192.168.1.4 or 192.168.1.5 or more generally at cloud.equality-tech.com

Administration[edit | edit source]

Under the covers, the QNAP is a Linux box, so if you want to reset someones password, you can just use the passwd command as usual.
