Granting Access to Hosts

You can allow hosts to use the ports on a shared NPort server by assigning access

permissions to the host. The access control list can only be defined by the server’ s

administrator for security. Without granting access, you see the screen with ‘ Non-

authorized’ for the ports.

After Add Server Wizard and if you have input your password showing that you are

the administrator, your server is granted to access to the server you have added. You

may go to server properties to check on that. However, if you failed on the password

confirmation, you can map the ports to your NT but you cannot access to the port.

You have to ask your administrator to add your IP address to the access control list

of the server to grant your access. If you are not sure the IP address of the host you

want to add, run ‘ ipconfig’ from the host’ s NT MS-DOS prompt.

. Note: If you want to let the ports to be accessed by all users, simply empty the

access control list.

To grant access, enter Access Control Page first:

1. Run NPort Manager

2. Click on the Server you want to make modification.

3. Click on Server Properties from toolbar.

4. Select Access Control page.

5. Screen shows a list of ports and two ways of adding permissions.

There are two methods provided for easy adding hosts. It allows you easily viewing

the access control list by Port or by IP address. These two approaches also apply to

the procedure for adding new hosts. Next two sections describe how to add hosts

under both approaches.
