Setup For Microsoft Networks (Smb) - HP J3278B - SureStore CD-ROM Server/Tower 7 NAS Server User Manual

Setup for Microsoft Networks (SMB)

This chapter describes the setup for Microsoft and IBM
networks running SMB (Server Message Block). SMB is a
protocol that makes use of NetBIOS. NetBIOS can be trans-
ported over different network protocols. The HP SureStore
CD-ROM server supports the following transport methods
automatically:
• SMB over NetBIOS/NetBEUI
(NetBIOS Extended User Interface)
• SMB over NetBIOS/TCP/IP
(also called NBT)
Clients using SMB could be running Windows 95 or 98,
Windows NT, Windows for Workgroups, OS/2, or DOS.
This chapter includes examples of procedures for such client
systems. You may need to refer to your network operating
system manuals for assistance with specific procedures.
If you are running TCP/IP on your network as well as SMB,
refer to chapter 3 to assign the IP address to the server (the "Set
the IP Address for the Server" section from page 3-1 to page 3-8)
before granting access to clients.
Following that section of chapter 3 are instructions for
accessing the CDs and configuring the server by using a web
browser (starting on page 3-8). For IP and HTTP installa-
tions, we recommend use of those instructions for client
access and configuration in addition to the methods follow-
ing in this chapter 4.
