Step 9: Setting up Network Drives on other PCs

On the Linux PC with Graphic Desktop

This procedure is for a RedHat Enterprise Linux 4 configuration. If you run a different version of Linux, you might have to adapt the procedure. See your OS documentation.

1.From the Applications menu, choose Network Servers.

2.In the Network window, double-click on Windows Network.

3.Double-click on the SmartStor (NS4300) on the network.

4.Double-click on the PUBLIC folder.

If this is the first time you accessed this folder, an Authentication dialog box opens.

5.Type admin in the Username and Password fields, then click the OK button. Leave the Domain field blank.

The folder opens. You can now copy files to and from the folder on the SmartStor.

Setting up a Network Drive on a Macintosh PC

Before you can access the SmartStor from a Macintosh, you must use PASM to configure the SmartStor to communicate with Mac OS X.

On the Windows PC

1.Start PASM.

See “PASM in your Browser” on page 11 or “PASM in SmartSYNC” on page 12.

2.In the Tree, on the left side of the PASM screen, click on the + beside the File & Print icon to expand the Tree.

3.Click on the Protocol Control icon, then click on the Macintosh tab.

4.Next to Service, click the Enable option, then click the OK button.

The Macintosh protocol enables Macintosh PCs to connect to SmartStor.

5.Click on the File Sharing icon in the tree.

6.Click on the Modify tab.

7.Check the Macintosh box, then click the OK button.

The Macintosh file sharing enables Macintosh PCs to access folders on the SmartStor. In this case, access is given for the PUBLIC folder.
