Using a NetBIOS Network
NOTE
•
You can send data using the following formats. A DNS server is required for the
latter case:
\\192.168.2.100\share
\\host_name.organization.company.com\share
•
You can also specify the user name in the address using the following formats:
- domain_name\user_name (up to 15 alphanumeric characters for the domain
name, and up to 20 for the user name)
- user_name@organization.company.com (up to 128 characters in total)
Note that the latter is only applicable when sending to a Windows 2000/XP/Server
2003 computer that belongs to a domain containing Windows 2000/Server 2003
domain controllers.
