You must have a fileserver account to access the fileserver; there is no Guest access. Please contact Baum for an account if you do not have one. SleekII account names are of the form Lastname-EC (modified where necessary to be unique, not case sensitive) and passwords are up to eight case-sensitive characters. You may reset the password to your choice.
All materials previously residing in PersonalStorage on Sleek2 should be accessible to their owners. If you want your PersonalStorage folder to allow other users to have 'drop box' capabilities, select the folder, go to File->Sharing..., and give 'Everyone' the facility to 'write only (Drop Box)'.
The server upgrade allows us to grant each registered user much more space to store their materials. Please keep your usage of PersonalStorage space to no more than 20 Mb. This material will be backed up on a regular basis in the near future.
(In the crude, command-line Win95 FTP client, use the command 'open ec10.bc.edu 2100'; 'help' or '?' will list the available commands. Remember to specify 'binary' before transferring binary files such as word processing documents or spreadsheets).
You must specify your SleekII username and password when making the connection. When you log on, you will be able to access any volumes and folders (subdirectories) to which you would have access from an AppleShare client. Thus you can access your folder on SleekII from any PPP (Remote Access) dial-up session; you need not use Apple Remote Access nor Timbuktu to have access to SleekII.
