I have an LS-WVLB and I want to share a specific folder under my "share" folder via ftp.  I don't see any way to specify which folder in my array can be accessed.  As an example under Array1 I have 10 main folders, only one of which i'd like to share and have be visible via ftp.  Anyone with any information on how I can go about setting this up via the web interface or otherwise, I greatly appreciate  your help.

You cannot specific a single folder under the main share. You will have to create a new share and designate that as the FTP folder here's how.

Login to the Linkstation's settings, go to [Share Folders]->[Folder Setup], click on Create folder and name the folder what ever you want and put a check on FTP and click save. Next go to [Network]->[Settings] and towards the bottom you will see "Network Services", in Network services you will see FTP. Click on FTP and enable it. Now you can access that folder via FTP. This is also in the manual on page 41.
