Client Setup

Before enabling File and Printer Sharing, you should prepare your computer to be used with any file servers that may be on the network.

If you are not using Windows 95 with an NT or NetWare file server, skip the next two paragraphs. Otherwise:

•Using the Card to Connect to a NetWare File Server

Click on My Computer, Control Panel, and Network. Change the Network Logon to Client for NetWare Network. Next, double-click on the client for NetWare networks. Put your server's name in the Preferred Server box. Click in the Enable Logon Script Processing box. Click on OK and restart your PC.

Note: This method is effective for NetWare 3.11 and 3.12 servers. for NetWare 4.x or higher, you should obtain and use Client32 instead.

•Using the Card to Connect to a Windows NT Domain

Click on My Computer, Control Panel, and Network. Change the Primary Logon to Client for Microsoft Network. Double-click on the Client for Microsoft networks. Check the Log into Windows NT domain box. Put your NT domain name in the Windows NT domain area. Click on OK and restart your PC.

Continue with the installation instructions that appear on your screen, if any. When you're finished, restart your computer.

Note: In order for you to communicate with the other PCs on your network, you must enable File and Printer sharing. Please go on to the next page.
