Configuring the client computer
Even with the Dial-In service enabled, you must grant dial-in access to each user name
individually. By default no users can dial in. To allow a user to dial in to the Magnia SG20:
1
Click the
Admin
icon on the client computer’s desktop to access the Administration
Web site.
2
In the Users section of the System page, check the
Dial-In Access
option on that
user’s account configuration page
To perform this procedure, you must be logged in with a user name that has level 3
access.
After the user name has had “Dial-In Access” privileges granted, all other user name and
password rules still apply to the client computer. This means that both the client
computer that the user is dialing in from and the Magnia SG20 must have the same user
name and password.
Once connected to the Magnia SG20 by modem, users can do anything that they were
able to do when connected locally including access public and personal files, make
backup copies, and print to the network printer.
Communicating with the Magnia SG20
The Magnia SG20 is a highly reliable and simple to use device. It does not have
connections for a monitor or keyboard and cannot be significantly altered by adding
options or additional hardware. All management of the Magnia SG20 is performed
through the Administration Web site.
Accessing the Administration Web site
The Magnia SG20 doesn’t support the connection of a monitor or keyboard. Instead, you
use your Web browser on one of the client computers to access both the built-in intranet
Web site and the Administration Web site, which stored on the Magnia SG20’s hard disk
drive.
If you used the Magnia SG20 Setup CD to set up the client computer, an icon on the
desktop labeled “Admin” provides access to the Administration Web site.
To access the Administration Web site, click the
Admin
icon on the client computer’s desktop. If the client computer does not have this icon,
direct your browser to the
following URL: http://myserver:8282 (you can also use http://192.168.1.1:8282).
