Logging in to the network
When you start your computer, you will be asked for a user
name and password to connect to the server. Both your client
computer and the Magnia SG30 check your user name and
password entries to make sure that you are an authorized user
of the system. Therefore, the user name and password for
your client computer must match the user name and password
registered with the Magnia SG30 exactly.
Sample login screen
The various Microsoft
®
Windows
®
operating systems
manage user names differently.
The Microsoft
®
Windows
®
95, Windows
®
98, and
Windows
®
Me operating systems each maintain their user
names in separate files on the computer’s hard disk. They do
not have elaborate security, and therefore allow you to cancel
the login process by clicking Cancel or pressing the
Escape
key on the keyboard. If you cancel the login process on the
Windows
®
95, 98, or Me operating system, you will have
access to the client computer only, you will not be logged in
to the Magnia SG30 and, therefore, will not have use of its
resources.
The Windows NT
®
, Windows
®
2000 and Windows
®
XP
operating systems have sophisticated security and user
management features. They will not allow you to access the
client computer without entering a user name and password.
