MaxAttach NAS 6000 Administration Guide
In the Password and Confirm password boxes, you can type a password containing up to
127 characters.
If you are using Microsoft® Windows® 2000 on a network that also has computers using Microsoft
Windows 95 or Microsoft Windows 98, consider using passwords that contain fewer than 14
characters. Windows 95 and Windows 98 support passwords that contain up to 14 characters. If
your password is longer, you may not be able to log on to your network from those computers.
The only new users you should add to the administrators group are those that will be solely
performing administrative tasks.
To add a user account
1.
From the primary navigation bar, choose Users.
2.
From the Users page, choose Local Users.
3.
In the Tasks list, choose New.
4.
Type the information for the new user account.
5.
The Home Directory field specifies a new directory which will be created, and to
which the user will have exclusive access permission. The directory name is the same
as user name defined above, and will be located in the path specified.
6.
Choose OK.
Enabling the Guest Account
By default, the guest account is disabled. For workgroups that have Windows 95 and
Windows 98 client computers, enabling the guest account is the quickest way to provide
access to resources on a server appliance. By enabling the guest account, however, any user
connected to the network will have access to resources on the appliance. An alternative is
to create a user account for every user on the network.
