Shared Network Drives

 

 

About 

Because the MinIT6000 has limited internal storage, it might be necessary to attach to a shared network drive to 
save thing such as documents and email attachments.  However, to do so, the pc/server must be available to the LAN 
(via local or wide area network connection) and have local drives that are set up for Microsoft network sharing. 

Sharing a Network Drive / Folder on a Windows 95/98 PC 

1.  Open Windows Explorer selecting 

Start

 > 

Programs

 > 

Windows Explorer

2.  Select/highlight the appropriate drive/folder and click with the right (secondary) mouse button. 

3.  Select Sharing to bring up the properties window for that specific drive or drive folder. 

4.  Select the 

Shared As

 option and select 

Share Name

 and 

Access Type

Note:

  The current name of the drive or folder will appear in the 

Share Name

 box.  Change only if necessary. 

5.  If desired, type in an appropriate password. 

6.  Select the Apply button or OK to process the changes. 

 

Creating Desktop Shortcut to a Shared Network Drive / Folder 

In the current version of firmware, even though it may be a little complicated, it is possible to add your own 
desktop “Shortcuts”. 

Steps 1 - 3 

 

1.  Place the mouse curser over the “Internet Explorer” shortcut icon, click the right mouse button and 

select Copy. 

2.  Place the mouse curser over an empty portion of the desktop, click the right mouse button and 

select Paste. 

3.  Place the mouse curser over the n ew “Copy of Internet Explorer” shortcut icon, click the right 

mouse button and select Properties.
