Apple AppleShare 3.0 User Manual

6. Click OK.
A dialog box appears in which you identify yourself as a registered user or
guest user of the file server.
7. Click Guest or Registered User.
If you are a guest or if you are not certain that you are registered on the
server, click the Guest button so that it is highlighted. If you are a
registered user, the Registered User button is already highlighted.
In some cases, the Guest option is dimmed, indicating that guests are not
permitted access to the file server you selected.
8. If you are a registered user, type or correct your name and password and
click OK.
The name that appears is taken from your User Name in the Chooser. If that is
not your registered name for the file server, type your registered name.
Type in your password exactly as it was given to you or as you set it,
matching upper- and lowercase letters and spaces. Dots appear as you type to
protect your password from being seen.
- Note Next to your password, a word or phrase in parentheses lets you know
what method of security is used to send your password to the file server. The
possible methods are Clear Text, Scrambled, and Two-way Scrambled. Clear Text
sends your password directly to the server without modification. Both
Scrambled and Two-way Scrambled send your password to the server in an
encrypted form. Scrambled is used by the server to verify that you are a
valid user. Two-way Scrambled allows your computer to verify that it is
communicating with a valid server as well. u
A dialog box appears in which you select the volumes you want to use. A
volume is an area of storage on your file server where you access and store
information. A volume can be an entire hard disk or a CD-ROM disc attached to
the file server, or a folder on either of these media.
9. Select the name of the volumes you want to use.
You may have to scroll to see the volume you want. You can also type the
first few letters of the name of the volume to select it. To select more than
one volume, hold down the Shift key or the key and click the additional
volume names.
A dimmed volume name indicates that either the volume is already on your
desktop, or you do not have access privileges to connect to it.
10. Click OK.
When you click OK, the dialog box closes and an AppleShare icon appears on
your desktop in the area where disk and disk drive icons appear. (If you are
connecting to a type of file server other than AppleShare, the icon will be
different from the one shown here.)
Clicking the Cancel button will terminate the log-on process and return you
to the Chooser.
