Snap! Server 4000 Quick Start Guide

Using the Snap! Server from your Windows 
Computer

Once installed on your network, the Snap! Server appears as a server with a shared folder. You can 

use it to organize and store files in the same way that you use the folders on your local hard disk. 

It should appear in your Network Neighborhood within minutes.

The default server name is SNAPnnnnnn, where nnnnnn is the serial number from the 

label on your unit (for example, SNAP300020). For NetWare users, the server name is 

SNAPnnnnnnNW, where nnnnnn is the serial number from the label on your unit (for 

example, SNAP300020NW).
Microsoft Networking users should look for the Snap! Server in Workgroup in Network 

Neighborhood. NetWare users should look in the NetWare servers list. If you cannot locate 

the Snap! Server, try using the Find Computer function, as described on page 3.
By default, there are no security restrictions for accessing the files and folders within the 

Snap! Server. Anyone who can connect to the Snap! Server from your network or from the 

Internet can access any of its files. See page 4 for information on how to enable security 

and customize other Snap! Server features. 

NOTE: The Snap! Server uses DHCP to obtain an IP address automatically. If your network 

uses TCP/IP but does not assign IP addresses automatically, use the Snap! Assist 

program, described on page 4, to assign one.
