Local TCP/IP Connection -
Local DNS
Your server and workstations will not have a
connection to the Internet, but you have decided
that you would like to set up a TCP/IP network. You
will also provide DNS system for easy-to-remember
name resolution. By setting up TCP/IP and DNS on
your local area network, your clients will be able
to access your AppleShare IP Web, FTP, and Mail
servers.
You will have to assign unique IP addresses to
all TCP/IP clients and servers on the local
network. Please refer to AppleShare IP Help manual
for information on Private Network IP Addressing.
In addition, the TCP/IP Connections tutorial on the
AppleShare IP CD provides a detailed explanation on
IP addressing.
Briefly, you can use the following ranges of IP
addresses on a local network.
- 10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255
- 172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255
- 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255
Follow these steps to correctly set up your
AppleShare IP server:
- Prepare your computer as detailed in Chapter
1 of AppleShare IP Getting Started manual.
- Configure the TCP/IP control panel of the
AppleShare IP server with assigned static IP
address. Enter local DNS server name for Domain
Name Server address.
- Install AppleShare IP as instructed Chapter
2 of AppleShare IP Getting Started manual for
Custom Setup.
- In the AppleShare IP Easy Setup program,
choose "Custom" setup when prompted at the
"Choose a Network Type" screen.
- AppleShare IP Easy Setup will also assist
you in setting up MacDNS for domain name
services. For more info on MacDNS, check the
MacDNS manual in the MacDNS folder on your
computer.
