AEG IR 4427 Domain/workgroup configuration, Setting up a new user account Windows XP

Domain/workgroup configuration

The Domain configuration item can be found on a Windows XP machine as follows:

1.From the start menu, select CONTROL PANEL > SYSTEM > COMPUTER NAME tab.

2.The Domain or Workgroup that this Computer is a member of is displayed in this tab.

3.If the PC is not a member of any Domain or Workgroup then one must be joined. To do this click on the change button and enter the name of the domain (the default for Windows XP is MSHOME).

4.A reboot of the PC may be prompted if the Domain or Workgroup has been changed.

Setting up a new user account (Windows XP)

The Wi-Fi Radio requires a user account to be set up on each PC that you wish to browse. By default most PCs have at least one user account associated with it. The user name and password (optional) needs to be the same on each PC as the Internet Radio only stores one user name and one password.

For windows XP this can be set up as follows:

1.From the start menu, select Control Panel > User accounts.

2.From this screen click ‘ Add …’ , and enter the new user name and the Domain/Workgroup setting noted above. Select the type of user (restricted) and then select finish.

3.Select the user just created, select ‘ Reset Password …’ and enter a password for this user.

4.Note the User name and Password.

NOTE:

For Windows Vista: Users have to turn on the Guest account via manage user accounts in the control panel, then add access to either ‘ Everyone’ or ‘ Guest’ on the shared drive. You could create a new account for the internet radio, with a password, if you are concerned about security. The Guest account has no password by default, so Jupiter 6 will connect to it from its factory default settings.

Configuring a shared drive

From the Start menu select My Computer or Windows Explorer and navigate to the directory you wish to share. Right click on the folder and select Sharing and Security. Configure the shared drive as read-only, and ensure that the user created above has read access to the share.
