Setting Up a Computer as a File Server

To send data from the machine to a computer on your network, you need to specify the settings
of the computer for receiving data.
You can send data over a TCP/IP network to any of the following:
•
FTP server (Windows NT/2000/XP/Server 2003, UNIX, Linux, Mac OS X, iW Gateway series)
•
Windows shared folder (Windows 98/Me/NT/2000/XP/Server 2003)
•
Samba shared folder (UNIX/Linux)
This section describes how to set up a computer as an FTP server.
For instructions on how to configure a Windows and Samba shared folder, see "Setting Up a
Computer as a File Server," in Chapter 5, "Using a NetBIOS Network." (See p. 5-16.)
IMPORTANT
• To send data from the machine, the optional equipment must be installed. For the equipment needed,
see "Optional Equipment and System Environment Requirements," on p. 1-2.
• Samba 2.2.8a or later is supported.
• This section describes only the procedures for setting up a computer to receive data sent from the
machine. To send data from the machine to a server on the network, you must enter an address setting
from the control panel.
For instructions on how to specify recipient address settings, see Chapter 2, "Basic Sending Methods,"
in the Sending and Facsimile Guide.
