Mac Users

The procedure for accessing a shared folder on a Mac varies, depending on whether the Mac is running
OS X or an older operating system. (Macs running OS X can access the same shared CIFS folders as
Windows users. Mac running older operating systems can access the same shared NFS folders as Linux
users.)
Mac OS X
To access a shared folder on a Mac running OS X:
1. From the Go menu, click Connect to Server.
2. In Address, enter the following and click Connect:
smb://storage_system
where storage_system is the name or IP address of the storage system.
Note: You can use the storage system server name if:
Your computer is in the same subnet as the storage system.
You added the IP address and name of the storage system to your local hosts file.
You manually registered the name with a DNS server in your network.
3. In Select a share, select the name of the shared folder that you want to access and then click OK.
4. Enter the user name and password for accessing this shared folder, and then click OK.
If the guest user has access to this shared folder, you can use guest as both the user name and pass-
word.
An icon with the name of the shared folder is created on the desktop.
5. Repeat steps 1 through 4 for each shared folder that you want to access.
6. To access the shared folder, double-click the icon on the desktop.
