## A2SERVER
|
|
|
|
To connect to A2SERVER from your Apple II:
|
|
|
|
(An alternative to the below is to [boot your Apple II over the
|
|
network](a2server_netboot.md) -- check that out too.)
|
|
|
|
Start up A2SERVER and wait (potentially up to a minute) until you get to the
|
|
login prompt. You do not need to log in. On a Raspberry Pi, you can see that
|
|
it's ready when the the normally irregular ACT or OK LED blinks steadily and
|
|
rapidly for ten seconds.
|
|
|
|
If you are on a IIe, boot from the [Workstation Card disk](#wsdisks), and
|
|
choose "Log On".
|
|
|
|
If you are on a IIgs, open the AppleShare control panel. If you don't have
|
|
it, use the GS/OS installer disks to custom install the script called
|
|
"Network: AppleShare" to your startup disk. If you are on a floppy-only
|
|
system, you can instead use the script "Network: AppleShare, 3.5" disk" to
|
|
make a bootable disk, or consider setting up
|
|
[network boot](a2server_netboot.md).
|
|
|
|
(There is also an obsolete [IIgs Workstation Disk](#wsdisks) that boots into
|
|
ProDOS 16 rather than GS/OS, and has the same ProDOS 8 applications for server
|
|
access as the IIe disk. You probably don't want to use it.)
|
|
|
|
"a2server" or "raspberrypi" should appear in the list of server names. Log
|
|
in as Guest and select the A2FILES volume, for ProDOS 8 storage, and/or the
|
|
GSFILES volume, for GS/OS storage. (You can also log in as a registered user,
|
|
but it's exactly the same.)
|
|
|
|
On the A2FILES volume, filenames need to be all caps and are subject to the
|
|
usual ProDOS restrictions (letters/numbers/periods only, first character must
|
|
be a letter, 15 characters max). IIgs users can store files on GSFILES with
|
|
mixed case, punctuated names of up to 31 characters (same as a classic Mac).
|
|
|
|
The network volumes hosted by A2SERVER will appear on the Finder desktop in
|
|
GS/OS; in ProDOS 8, you can type `PREFIX /A2FILES`.

FIXME: These disk images are not (at present) contained within this archive.
|
|
Moreover, they cannot be directly included in properly "Open Source" packages
|
|
of A2SERVER which ought to include this archive. They'll have to be external
|
|
links, but I'm not fixing that right now. -tjcarter,2015-10-22
