Setting Up File Sharing
When you turn on file sharing services, users can share items in selected folders.
If you turned on Apple file service in the Server Assistant, server users can already share
items by putting them in the Public folders in their home directories or by copying the items
into the Drop Box folder inside another user’s Public folder.
If you did not turn on Apple file service in the Server Assistant, you can turn it on now, or
you can turn on one of the other available file services.
To set up file sharing:
1 Open the Server Settings application (click its icon in the Dock) and click the File & Print tab.
2 Turn on the file services you want to use.
m To share with Macintosh computers, turn on Apple file service.
m To share with Windows computers, turn on Windows service.
m NFS, for sharing with Unix computers, is already on.
m To provide File Transfer Protocol access, turn on FTP service.
3 Open Workgroup Manager and click Sharing.
4 Select a volume or folder you want to share from the All list.
5 Click the General tab, select “Share this item and its contents,” and click Save.
For more information on setting up file sharing, see Chapter 4, “Sharing,” and Chapter 5,
“File Services,” in the Mac OS X Server Administrators’ Guide.
Setting Up Printers
When you turn on print service, server users can share network PostScript printers or USB
PostScript printers connected directly to the server.
If you turned on print service in the Server Assistant, the service is already running and a
queue is set up for any USB printer connected to the server. No printer queues are set up
automatically for network printers.
If you did not turn on print service in the assistant, you can turn it on now and add a printer.
To set up shared printers:
1 Open the Server Settings application.
2 Click Print on the File & Print tab and choose Start Print Service.
