Chapter 3 Setting Up Share Points 63
Step 4: Congure le services for AFP, NFS, FTP, and SMB
Assuming that you turned on the le services with Server Admin, you can congure
AFP, NFS, FTP, and SMB so that clients on the network can share their les. The
summary instructions that follow provide an overview of conguring these le
services.
For more information about conguring these protocols, see the related chapter
in this guide.
Step 5: Set up share points and access privileges for the Xserve NAS
Use Server Admin to set share points and dene access privileges for share points.
For more information, see “Setting Up a Share Point” on page 36.
After you nish these steps, the basic setup of the Xserve NAS system is complete.
You can add or change share points, users, and groups when necessary.
Conguring Spotlight for Share Points
If your client computers need to search share points, you can enable Spotlight
indexing in Server Admin.
Spotlight indexing is only available for a share point that has AFP or SMB turned on.
If your share point does not use AFP or SMB, do not enable Spotlight searching.
If you have a share point with Spotlight turned on and you turn o AFP and SMB,
Spotlight indexing will not work.
If you are using an Xsan volume and want to enable or disable Spotlight, use
Xsan Admin.
Spotlight provides the capability to do quick searches of network volumes, which
requires the server to maintain an index of all les and folders on a share point. This
indexing process uses more server resources. To free these resources, turn o Spotlight
if not used.
To congure Spotlight for share points:
1 Open Server Admin and connect to the server.
2 Click File Sharing.
3 Click Share Points and select the share point you want to enable Spotlight for.
4 Click Share Point below the list.
5 Select the Enable Spotlight searching checkbox.
6 Click Save.
