Configuring the Server

By making configuration changes, you can customize server
operation and can set access rights for security.
Some IP configuration changes you might need are listed below.
Some of these items are detailed in this section.
•
Set an IP address, as described in this chapter (page 3-1).
•
Set up or change the server name for NetWare or for Microsoft
networking clients (SMB), or change the domain or workgroup
name for SMB. (See page 4-12.)
•
Set up a password or other access rights restrictions, some of
which are specific to other networking and client protocols.
(See chapters 4, 5, and 6 for other protocols.)
•
Disable server protocols, such as SMB on NetBIOS/NetBEUI,
SMB on NetBIOS/TCP/IP, NetWare, and NFS, to prevent
blanket access for protocols for which you have not restricted
access.
•
Disable disc access through web browsers.
•
Set up Internet and SNMP parameters.
•
Set the server's time synchronization.
This chapter provides information for some of the configuration
options, if they are general needs or relate specifically to TCP/IP
networks. Configuration options specific to Microsoft networking,
Novell NetWare, or UNIX/NFS are addressed in chapters 4, 5,
and 6, respectively.
HP recommends the web method of configuration if a web browser
and IP and HTTP are available. Text editing is an alternative
method (see page 3-6).
