Account
Connecting as the server administrator
gives you access to all shared folders on
the server. The administrator account's
user name is always Administrator.
The server administrator account is created the first
time you install the client software on a PC. You
enter a password during the installation. See
Installing Software on the First PC
.
• If you created a User Account on the server, create a matching User Account on the Mac (if it does
not already exist). The Mac user account should have the same user name and password as the
server user account.
On the Mac computer, choose Apple menu > System Preferences > Accounts. On the Accounts
dialog, verify the dialog features are unlocked
and click "+" to add a user account. Complete
the information on the Accounts dialog.
