With AppleTalk network integration, Macintosh computers need only the Macintosh OS
software to function as clients; no additional software is required.
AppleTalk network integration simplifies administration by maintaining just one set of user
accounts instead of separate user accounts, for example, one on the Macintosh server and
another on the computer running Windows 2000 Server.

FTP Service Properties Page

The File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is integrated with the Windows security model. Users
connecting using FTP are authenticated based on the user accounts on the Windows
Powered server appliance. They receive access based on those user profiles. Keep in mind,
however, that the FTP server relies on the ability to send user passwords over the network
without data encryption. As a result, a user with physical access to the network could
examine user passwords during the FTP validation process.
FTP supports all Microsoft Windows FTP client commands, when a server appliance is
running FTP, other computers using the FTP utility can connect to the server and transfer
files. On the other hand, non-Microsoft versions of FTP clients might contain commands
that are not supported by the FTP server protocol.
