See “Sharing files and transferring data” on page 46 for further information on
Qube 3 file sharing. This section describes how to setup the Qube 3 file sharing
settings.
Windows file sharing (SMB)
Windows-based machines use a file-sharing protocol called Server Message
Block (SMB) or Windows file sharing. Once Windows file sharing is set up, the
Qube 3 appears in your Network Neighborhood as a machine named <hostname>
(the name that the Qube 3 Administrator assigned to the Qube 3 in the Setup
Wizard or the Control Panel screen). For additional information on setting up
Windows file sharing, see “Using Windows file sharing (SMB)” on page 46.
To set the Windows file sharing settings:
1. Select Administration > File Services > Windows. The Windows File
Sharing Settings table appears; see Figure 60 for the Basic settings and
Figure 61 for the Advanced settings.
