Macintosh Client Setup
Requirements
TCP/IP
Accessing Disk Storage
To use the Disk Server, you require:
Macintosh OS Version 7.5 or later, with AppleShare.
The Disk Server Administrator must create a value User Name on the Disk Server
for each Mac user. Otherwise, Mac users will only be able to access the Disk
Server by using the guest login.
Generally, no changes are required.
However, if you previously used a fixed (static) IP Address, but now wish to use the
DHCP Server function in the Disk Server, you must change your TCP/IP settings to
make your Mac a DHCP client. Use the procedure below.
To make your MAC a DHCP Client
1.
Select Apple - Control Panel - TCP/IP.
2.
Select Ethernet, then Setup, then DHCP.
1.
Select Chooser from the Apple menu.
2.
Click the AppleShare icon.
3.
If necessary, select the appropriate zone. (By default, the Disk Server is accessi-
ble from any zone.)
4.
Select the Disk Server from the list of File Servers, and click OK.
5.
In the Log-in dialog, enter your Name and Password. These must match the val-
ues stored on the Disk Server, or you will not be able to gain access. If the Disk
Server Administrator has not created a User Name for you, click the Guest but-
ton. This will allow access to the public share.
6.
A list of "Shares" (Disk Server folders) will be displayed. Use the checkbox to
indicate which Shares you wish to access. If you select a Share to which you do
not have access permission, you will see an error message.
7.
Click OK to finish. An icon for each Share will appear on your desktop. You can
use these like any other folders.
