Managing Server-to-Server Sharing AccessΒΆ
You can manage how server-to-server sharing functions for internal and external users and groups from the Admin page. The settings on the Admin page provide a level of security for whether or not local or remote ownCloud users or groups can access server-to-server shares.
To manage server-to-server sharing access:
Access the ownCloud Admin page.
In the Application View, scroll to the Remote Shares section of the page.
Enable or disable the remote shares options as desired:
- Allow other instances to mount public links shared from this server – This option enables (checked) or disables (unchecked) the ability for remote ownCloud users to access public links that you share from the server.
- Allow users to mount public link shares – This option enables (checked) or disables (unchecked) users on the local server to add shares (folders or files) to the current ownCloud instance.
