3.4.2. Microsoft Networking
Enable file service for Microsoft networking: If you are using Microsoft Windows, enable
this service to access the files on network share folders. Assign a workgroup name.
9 Standalone Server
Use local users for user authentication.
9 WINS server
If the local network has a WINS server installed, specify the IP address. FNS-5000B will
automatically register its name and IP address with WINS service. If you do not want to
enable WINS server support, or you do not have a WINS server on your network, enter
0.0.0.0 in the field for WINS server IP address.
9 Domain Master
There is a unique Domain Master Browser for collecting and recording resources and
services available for each PC in the network or workgroup of Windows. When a domain
master browser (Windows 2000 / XP PC) exists already in the network, there is no need
to configure FNS-5000B as the domain master.
When you find the waiting time for accessing Network Neighborhood too long, it may be
caused by failure of an existing master browser, or there is no master browser in the
network. If there is no master browser in your network, you can check the box Domain
Master in this section to configure FNS-5000B as the master browser to enhance the
speed of accessing information on Network Neighborhood.
