n Host Name: The host name must not exceed 60 characters. Device host names are resolved using DNS. This
happens once you have added a device and confirmed it. If the device is not registered in the DNS, then its
name in the Devices tab (Administration Console) may change after confirmation.
Note that changing the host name after installation can cause licensing and database issues, and is therefore
not supported.
n Network Attached Storage Devices (NAS): ShareScan 5.0 does not support NAS devices.
n Novell: ShareScan does not support direct communication between a ShareScan Manager PC and a
multifunction device on Novell networks. However, when Novell client software is installed on the Manager PC
some Connectors (eCopy Quick Connect, and the eCopy Scan to Desktop) can bridge to a Novell server. A
Novell client must be installed on the ShareScan Manager PC if Novell authentication of Scan Inboxes is
required.
The eCopy Connector for LDAP/SMTP requires a Novell client to work properly with Session Logon.
n Local Security Policy: “Log on locally” rights need to be assigned to all domain users. ShareScan requires that
the Manager PC login credentials used during normal operation must be those of a local Administrator in order to
run the Administration Console. ShareScan Manager cannot be installed on a Domain Controller because of
impersonation.
