Fileserver Configuration
You can modify the configuration of the fileserver by right-
clicking on the fileserver, selecting the Configuration option
from the pop-up menu, and making your changes in the
following Fileserver Configuration tab sections.
Miscellaneous (NetWare Only)
The features you see in the Miscellaneous tab section may
vary depending on the system you purchased. By default, the
first three options are enabled.
If you find that the FastCD
feature, which is documented
in Chapter Seven, has no
useful function in your
environment, this is where you
can disable it.
You can temporarily disable
locally attached drives to
perform maintenance on them,
or to make changes to the
host.
Your environment will
determine whether you will
display subdirectory listings of
off-line volumes. It may be
useful to your users to know the volumes exist even though they are not mounted. On the
other hand, it may be confusing to users to see files to which they do not have access.
DiscView's database keeps records on volume configuration
information, user information, security − anything you
configure on a volume. It is recommended you keep the
database cleanups enabled to control the size of the database.
Use the 24-hour digital clock display to set a daily cleanup
time.
If the DiscView PRO Server Components are installed on a
NetWare 4.x fileserver, an NDS (Novell Directory Service)
login account should be created. This account is used by the
DiscView PRO Server Components to perform three key
operations in the NDS environment.
ü The first is browsing the NDS tree. NDS tree browsing is
necessary when DiscView is used to view or select a new
NDS login account, and when viewing or assigning
DiscView managers and volume users.
