Network Access to the Server

Sun Solaris 9, 10
SuSE Pro 9
SuSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) 8.x,
9.x, 10.x
To Enable NFS v4 Access to the Server
To enable NFS v4, check the
Enable NFS v4
check box.
Note
Do not uncheck the
Enable NFS
box when you enable NFS v4. Both check
boxes must be checked for NFS v4 access.
Apple Networking Configuration
Apple File Protocol (AFP) settings are configured on the
Network > Apple
screen of
the Administration Tool. The default settings provide access to AFP clients over an
AppleTalk or TCP/IP network. MacOS clients connecting over AFP can log in to the
server either as local users on the Snap Server or as Windows NT or Active
Directory domain users (if the server belongs to a domain). For more granular
control over client access for MacOS users who do not belong to a recognized
Windows domain, create local user accounts.
Note
MacOS X users can also connect to the Snap Server using Windows
networking (SMB). See “Connecting a MacOS Client Using SMB” on page 29.
AFP Configuration Guidelines
Consider the following when configuring access for your AFP clients.
Terminology
Some Snap Server terms may cause confusion for those familiar with Apple
terminology.

Definitions
Share
A Snap Server share appears as a Macintosh volume that can be accessed
through the Chooser.
Note
Unlike standard AppleShare servers, Snap Servers allow nested
shares (folders within folders). As a result, it is possible for some files or
directories to appear in more than one share.
