Extra security
AppleShare 3.0 enables your computer to verify that a file server is valid
before a connection is made. Additionally, your network administrator can
require that passwords be a minimum length and be changed at regular
intervals. The administrator can also disable a connection after a certain
number of failed log-on attempts. These requirements keep your data secure by
making it more difficult for unauthorized users to gain access to the file
server.
