> How do you put a drive on the network? There are several ways: You can share it through a Mac or PC connected through the network. This is standard AFP (Mac) or CIFS/SMB (Windows) file sharing. The Apple Airport Extreme has a USB port into which you can plug a USB hard drive which then shows up as a network volume. You can buy drives in enclosures with built in network ports. They are usually called something like a Net Drive—Lacie makes a lot of them. The ones I've seen are usually a drive and a small Linux computer running Samba for CIFS/SMB and Netatalk for AFP. _______________________________________________ MacGroup mailing list [email protected] http://www.math.louisville.edu/mailman/listinfo/macgroup
