Apple AppleShare Server 3.0 - Manual

APPLESHARE SERVER 3.0 ADMINISTRATOR'S QUICKSTART
Before You Start
This QuickStart is designed to help you get AppleShare Server 3.0 file and print servers
ready and running in the shortest possible time. The QuickStart is divided into three
sections:
- Getting Started
- Setting Up File Service
- Setting Up Print Service
You may not need to read all three sections -- only those that apply to your specific
needs. For instance, if you know you will be setting up only a print server, you can skip
to the section "Setting Up Print Service" after reading "Getting Started."
Getting help
This QuickStart assumes you're already familiar with basic Macintosh concepts and
tech-niques. However, if you need additional information about AppleShare Server 3.0, you
have two other sources of information: Balloon Help, which is built into the AppleShare
Server 3.0 software, and the AppleShare Server 3.0 Administrator's Guide.
Using Balloon Help
If you don't understand the instructions in this guide -- or if you see a window, button,
menu, or command you want to know more about -- use Balloon Help:
1. Choose Show Balloons from the Help menu.
2. Position the pointer over the item you want to know more about.
A balloon appears with an explanation of that item. You can turn off Balloon Help at any
time by choosing Hide Balloons from the Help menu.
Using the AppleShare Server 3.0 Administrator's Guide
If you still need more information after consulting Balloon Help, see the AppleShare
Server 3.0 Administrator's Guide. It's easy to locate the information you need: Each
section of this QuickStart corresponds to a section of the AppleShare Server 3.0
Administrator's Guide, where all procedures are explained in detail.
Getting started
This section explains how to prepare your Macintosh computer to function as a file or
print server. The steps presented in this section are explained in detail in Chapter 2,
"Getting Started," in the AppleShare Server 3.0 Administrator's Guide.
The instructions in this QuickStart assume you have already performed these tasks:
- You have set up the computer.
- You have installed a network card and software, if your network requires it.
- You have connected the server to the network.
- You have activated AppleTalk in the Chooser window and selected the appropriate network
type in the Network control panel.
If you have not yet performed these tasks, see the documentation that came with either
