a. Select the Host Type:
- Interplay Server/Remote Search—to add access to a remote Interplay workgroup
- TransferManager—to add access to a Workgroup 4 TransferManager
- MediaManager—to add access to a Workgroup 4 workgroup or Nearchive
system
- Interplay Server / 3d Party Search—to add access for a third-party plug-in. The
plug-in needs to be properly installed before you can configure it. See “Using
Third-Party Search Plug-Ins” in the Interplay Access User’s Guide or Help.
b. Type information for the remote workgroup. The fields vary, depending on the Host
Type you selected.
- For the Server, you can type the remote workgroup’s IP address instead of the host
name.
- For Database, select AvidWG for an Interplay Engine or AvidAM for an Interplay
Archive Engine.
- The Nickname is displayed in the Interplay Access Remote Search list and must be
less than 255 characters. If you do not supply a Nickname, the Interplay Engine
creates one that combines the host name and the database.
