Technical information on file sharing

The Magnia SG30 uses the Server Message Block (SMB) file
sharing protocol for file sharing services. This protocol is
supported by the Windows 95/98 and Windows Me operating
systems, as well as by the Windows NT, Windows 2000 and
Windows XP operating systems. If you are using an Apple

®

Macintosh

®

, you can either configure it to access the

Magnia SG30 using AppleTalk or use a commercial product,
such as “Dave” to obtain SMB access. For more information
about configuring a Macintosh, see

“Configuring a

Macintosh as a Client” on page 285

.

The network administrator can set limits on how much disk
space a single account can use.

If your Magnia SG30 has a second hard disk drive, your
network administrator can make its disk available for general
public storage in addition to the private folders established
with all accounts. For more information, see

“Using the

second disk drive” on page 174
