Logging In to the Network as Guest
If the network administrator has set up the Guest User object account as
described in “Creating a Guest User Account” on page 35, Macintosh users
can log in to the network as Guest with no password required.
1 In Mac OS 8 or 9, click the Apple menu > Chooser > AppleTalk > Server
IP Address.
In Mac OS X, click Go > Connect to Server.
2 Enter the IP address or DNS name of the NetWare server, and then click
Connect.
3 Click Guest Login > Connect.
The Guest user has rights to access network resources as configured by the
network administrator.
Changing Passwords from a Macintosh Computer
Macintosh users can change their passwords. When they change their simple
password, their NDS password is automatically synchronized.

IP Address.
In Mac OS X, click Go > Connect to Server.
2 Enter the IP address or DNS name of the NetWare server, and then click

Assigning Rights and Sharing Files from a Macintosh Computer
Although using ConsoleOne from the Administrator Workstation is the
recommended method for managing rights, Macintosh users have some file
sharing and management capability using Chooser.
HINT: For more information on how to use ConsoleOne to set up and manage
rights, see the ConsoleOne Users Guide (http://www.novell.com/documentation/lg/
