In the past I've only had my own user account on my DSM. I'm now starting to add members of my family and have some questions on how best to set it up.
I added a few members of my family and see it's created home folders for each of the new users. I've added the new users as 'standard' accounts, and my own account is an administrator account. But I noticed if I login from one of the new (standard user) accounts I can access all others users' home folders, including my own (admin) account. Shouldn't they only be able to access their own home folder, not everyone else's? (Have I set something up wrong here?)
I'm also going to setup Synology Drive on various computers that my family use so that some of their folders are synced to the Synology, and then to other computers they use, and I'll also setup some folders to backup to the Synology (that don't need syncing to other computers).
It seems that I can't sync or backup to each user's home folder so I guess I'll have to back to a different shared folder.
If I setup a new shared folder (Family Shared) could I create a folder for each user and set it so that each user can only access their own sub folder of the 'Family Shared' folder, or should I create a (top level) shared folder in Control Panel for each user, so that each can only access their own folders, and can't access the folders of the other users?
Any advice on how you've setup others users on your own Synology's would be appreciated.
