Technical information on file sharing
The Magnia SG20 uses the Server Message Block (SMB) file sharing protocol for file
sharing services. This protocol is supported by the Windows 95/98 and Windows Me
operating systems, as well as by the Windows NT
,
Windows 2000, and Windows XP
operating systems. If you are using an Apple
®
Macintosh
®
, you can either configure it to
access the Magnia SG20 using AppleTalk or use a commercial product, such as “Dave”
to obtain SMB access. For more information about configuring a Macintosh, see
Configuring a Macintosh as a Client
The network administrator can set limits on how much disk space a single account can
use.
If your Magnia SG20 has a second hard disk drive, your network administrator can make
its disk available for general public storage in addition to the private folders established
with all accounts. For more information, see
