Re: Can I set up a web page for my network drive?

Hi
The Network devices that have web interface have it embedded in their
firmware and it main use is for configuration of the device.
If your Network drive is a regular Hard Drive there is usually nothing to
configure so there is No need for such interface.
However if you do want to place a Web type interface on the drive you can
adopt the principle as described on this page.
The page describe how to access it from the Internet however the exact same
thing can be accesses locally by typing into a Browser the local IP that the
Hard Drive is sitting on like http://192.168.x.x (x are your IP numbers).
