NOTE: At this point, you will be prompted with a dialogue box asking for the TCP/IP network settings (i.e. IP address and netmask) for this WfW station. Fill these in at this time.

3.Select Add.
4.Select Service.
5.Select File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks from the list.
6.Click OK.
7.Click OK again since this service will now show in the list to the left.
Configuring TCP/IP
Since TCP/IP is used as the data transfer protocol, IP addresses and netmasks must be assigned to your Windows workstation(s) if you have not already done so.
If you are not familiar with IP addresses and are sure that this network will not go onto the Internet, Table 14 lists some sample settings to use.
