Connecting to the Apple File Server in Mac OS 8 or Mac OS 9
Apple file service does not support AppleTalk connections, so clients need to use TCP/IP to
access file services. You can use AppleTalk to find Apple file servers, but the connection must
be made using TCP/IP.
To connect to the Apple file server in Mac OS 8 or Mac OS 9:
1 Open the Chooser and click Server IP Address.
2 Enter the IP address or the name of the server in the window that appears and click Connect.
3 Enter your user name and password, then click Connect.
4 Select the volume you want to use and click OK.
Setting up a Mac OS 8 or Mac OS 9 Client to Mount a Share Point Automatically
As an alternative to using the automount feature of AFP, FTP, or NFS, clients can set their
computers to mount server volumes automatically.
To set a Mac OS 8 or Mac OS 9 client computer to mount a server volume
automatically:
1 Use the Chooser to mount the volume on the client computer.
2 In the select-item dialog that appears after you log in, check the server volume you want to
mount automatically.
Supporting Windows Clients
Mac OS X Server supports the native Windows file sharing protocol, Server Message Block
(SMB). SMB is also known as Common Internet File System (CIFS). Mac OS X Server comes
with built-in browsing and name resolution services for your Windows client computers. You
can enable Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) on your server, or you can register
with an existing WINS server.
Windows services in Mac OS X Server also provide Windows Master Browser and Domain
Master Browser services. You do not need a Windows server or a primary domain controller
on your network to allow Windows users to see your server listed in the Network
Neighborhood window. Also, your Windows clients can be located on a subnet outside of
your server’s subnet.
See “Ensuring the Best Cross-Platform Experience” on page 248 for information about setting
up a dedicated share point for Windows users, and “Windows User Password Validation” on
page 249 for information about different techniques of validating Windows user passwords.
TCP/IP
In order to have access to Windows services, Windows client computers must be properly
configured to connect over TCP/IP. See your Windows networking documentation for
information on TCP/IP configuration.
