At Your Workstation:
1. With the Authentication Configuration web page still running, click Configure next to the server you

2. If the web page is not still running, open your Web browser and enter the TCP/IP address of the
machine in the Address or Location field. Press Enter.
3. Select the [Properties] tab. Note that (as of February 2007) you can either return to the Security
folder and the Authentication Configuration hot link (discussed on the previous page), or use the
alternative path, stated below.

Authentication System and pick SMB from the drop-down list. Click Apply.
