Granting Access to Hosts
It is possible to assign access permission to hosts to allow them access to the ports on a
shared NPort Server Lite. For security reasons, the access control list can only be defined
by the server’s administrator. If you have not been granted access, you will see a screen
with the message ‘Non-authorized’ for the ports.
After running Add Server Wizard and typing in your password showing that you are the
administrator, you are granted access to the server you have added. You may go to server
properties to check that. However, if you did not enter the correct password, you can still
map the ports to your NT/95/98, but you will not have access to the ports. You will need to
ask your administrator to add your IP address to the access control list of the server to grant
you access. If you are not sure of the IP address of the host you want to add, run “ipconfig”
from the host’s NT/95/98 MS-DOS prompt.
. Note: If you want to allow the ports to be accessed by all users, simply empty the access
control list.
