AppleTalk Name
By default, the AppleTalk name will be the same as the standard server name. If you change
the server name, the AppleTalk name will automatically change.
NetWare Name
The NetWare name must be different from the server appliance name. By default, the
NetWare name will be the server appliance name with _FPNW appended to it.

Global Settings Page

The Global Settings page allows you to change the overall network settings for your server
appliance by configuring the IPX settings as well as specifying the DNS suffixes and the
LMHOSTS and HOSTS file to use. These files can be used to resolve the names of any
computer or device.

DNS Name Resolution Tab
So that people can reach your Web site on an intranet or the Internet, you must have a
unique IP address that identifies your computer on the network. This address consists of a
long string of numbers separated by dots, for example, 172.16.255.255. Because a numeric
address is difficult for people to remember, text names, or friendly names, are used to
provide visitors with an easy-to-remember address, such as www.microsoft.com. Name
resolution involves supplying the correct numerical address from the friendly name that was
typed into a client browser.
