Windows/Mac OS X Users (CIFS)
■
Enter the user name and password for accessing the
shared folders. (You must enter the password a second
time to confirm it.)
The user name can be up to 15 characters long and
can include letters and numbers.
TeChNICAl NOTe:
If the user name and
password that you specify here are the same as
the person’s Windows user name and password,
the person will not be prompted to provide a user
name and password when accessing the shared
folder.
Linux/Other Mac Users (NFS)
■
Enter a computer description and the IP address or
computer name of the person’s computer.
The Computer description can be the name of the
person who typically uses the computer, or any other
description that you want to provide to identify the
computer in the Users list. This description can be up
to 15 characters long. The IP address or computer name
is the IP address or the actual computer name in the
computer’s system configuration.
TeChNICAl NOTe:
You can create a single
user that actually represents multiple users. In the
IP address or computer name text box, you can use
the wildcard characters * and ? to indicate a range
of names. For example, client* or client? would in-
clude all computers in the subnet whose name be-
gins with client. *.company.com would include all
computers in the domain company.com. However,
these wildcards cannot be used with IP addresses.
Repeat steps 2 through 4 until you have added all
the users that you want to add at this time. (You can
always add more users later.)
If you’d like to put Windows and Mac OS X us-
ers into groups, refer to section
