FTP Server Settings Linux/Unix (imageCLASS MF7480/MF7470 Only)

UNIX/Linux

note:

- UNlX users must have Solaris 2.6 or later installed in order to use the computer as an FTP server. Linux users must have Red Hat Linux 7.2 or later installed in order to use the computer as an FTP server.

- In some environments, detailed settings may be required in order to use FTP. For details, consult your network manager.

1. Log in to a workstation as a superuser.

2. Set up the users who send documents from the machine, and their passwords.

Enter a user name and a password not longer than 24 alphanumeric characters.

3. Create a shared directory to be used for recipient addresses, then enable read access and write access by the users who will be sending data.

4. Set a destination address using the control panel.

Sample destination setting:

- Server side settings:

[Host Name]: starfish

[Domain]: organization.company.com

The user's home directory is /home/hsato, and /home/hsato/

share is the data destination.

- The machine's destination settings:

The Protocol drop-down list: FTP

[Host Name]: starfish.organization.company.com

[User]: User name entered in step 2

[Password]: Password for the above user

[File Path]: Enter one of the following:

share (when using relative path) /home/hsato/

share (when using absolute path)

note:

-To use the host name of the above example for [Host Name], it is necessary to use a DNS server. (This applies even if the machine and the FTP server are in the same subnet.) If no DNS server is available, the host name setting should be specified using the IP address of the FTP server.

- A maximum of 120 alphanumeric characters can be entered for [Host Name] and [File Path].

- If Language Switch in Common Settings is set to [On], the Host Name and File Path of the file server destination may not be displayed correctly, so you may not be able to refer to them.

SMB Settings

note:

You may need to specify the WINS Settings to resolve the NetBIOS name in order to send data to the file server.

1. Press (Additional Functions).

2. Press [System Settings] [Network Settings] [SMB Settings].

If the System Manager ID and System Password have been set, enter the System Manager ID and System Password using (numeric keys), then press (Log In/Out) to enter the System Settings menu.

7. Enter the name of the workgroup the machine belongs to, using the keyboard on the touch panel display, then press [OK].

If there is no workgroup on your environment, you do not need to enter the workgroup name.

- You cannot enter the domain name as the workgroup name.

- You cannot enter a character string that includes blanks in [Server] and [Workgroup].

8. Press [Next], then [Comment].

9. Enter a comment about the printer if necessary, then press [OK].

If you display the printer information, the comment you specified here appears.
