Problem

Question to Ask

Solution

The system

doesn’t appear on

the network.

By default the d2 Network is configured to retrieve its IP address from a DHCP server.

If your network is managed

by a DHCP server and you cannot access your d2 Network, try checking your DHCP server’s log. To get the IP ad-

dress, run LaCie Network Assistant, which is located on the LaCie Storage Utilities CD-ROM.

If your network is NOT

managed by a DHCP server, the d2 Network uses its default IP address, which is 192.168.xx.100.

To change this IP

address, use LaCie Network Assistant.

Is the IP address properly set?

For more information, please see section

3.1. Accessing Shared Folders

.

Is your network DHCP enabled?

If your network is DHCP enabled, please refer to sections

2.3. Connect-

ing Using LaCie Network Assistant

. If your network is not DHCP enabled,

you will need to manually configure the address; please see section

2.4.

Configuring the LaCie d2 Network on a Network Without a DHCP Server

.

Are you using AppleTalk under Mac

OS 9.x?

If you are using AppleTalk under Mac OS 9.x, ensure that the LaCie d2

Network and the other clients on the network are in the same AppleTalk

zone.

A user does not

have access to

the LaCie d2

Network.

Has the administrator created an ac-

count for the user?

In order for a another user to access the LaCie d2 Network, two condi-

tions must be met: 1) the administrator must create and register a user

with the appropriate privileges; 2) the LaCie d2 Network must be con-

nected to the network via Ethernet for additional users to access the drive.
