Configuring Optional Terminal Start-Up Resources 25 For a network printer to be used (via SMB), all the requirements above must be met. Also, for a server with an NTFS file system, the security must be altered to allow guests to have full access to all files and directories in the network services tree. Perform the following steps: 1. Use Windows NT Explorer to locate the folder in which network services is installed (:\netservices is the default). 2. Select File (or Right-click the mouse) to open the drop-down menu for the folder. 3. Select Properties to open the Properties dialog box for the folder. 4. Select the Sharing tab and select the Shared As radio button. Enter a share name (or use the default) and set the User Limit as desired. 5. Select Security | Permissions | Add | Show Users. 6. Select Guest and Full Control, then press OK. 7. Select both Replace Permission check boxes and press OK. 8. Reply Yes to the Query and press OK. 9. After the Applying Security Information process completes, press OK to exit. SNMP SNMP is a network management protocol used for querying and modifying configuration information on existing terminals and other network devices. The terminal supports the standard MIB-2 associated with SNMP-v1, with the exception that most of the configuration information is read only. For the current software release, the only fields that are modifiable are the read/ write fields in the system group; specifically, the system.sysContact, system.sysName, and system.sysLocation objects. All other objects are currently read only. If your server is going to be used to configure and/or manage the terminals via SNMP, you should install the terminal MIB files, which are on the installation CD. Several standard MIBs are included on the CD and are named for the RFCs that describe them. These files do not need to be added to the network manager's database unless the NMS does not already contain a copy of the MIBs. Other than installing the SNMP manager software on your server and compiling the MIB into the manager's internal format, no additional configuration is necessary.

SNMP
SNMP is a network management protocol used for querying and modifying
configuration information on existing terminals and other network devices. The
terminal supports the standard MIB-2 associated with SNMP-v1, with the exception
that most of the configuration information is read only.
For the current software release, the only fields that are modifiable are the read/
write fields in the system group; specifically, the
system.sysContact
,
system.sysName
, and
system.sysLocation o
bjects. All other objects are
currently read only. If your server is going to be used to configure and/or manage
the terminals via SNMP, you should install the terminal MIB files, which are on the
installation CD. Several standard MIBs are included on the CD and are named for
the RFCs that describe them. These files do not need to be added to the network
manager’s database unless the NMS does not already contain a copy of the MIBs.
Other than installing the SNMP manager software on your server and compiling the
MIB into the manager’s internal format, no additional configuration is necessary.
