SUMMARY
The article contains Registry entries for the network services, Part
- These subgroups are included:
For a listing of the contents of network services entries articles
1-8, see "Network Services Entries, Part 1."
Alerter Service Entries
Entries for this service appear under the following subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Alerter\Parameters
AlertNames REG_MULTI_SZ List
Specifies the list of users to whom administrator alerts are sent.
This value can be set using the Server Manager. Default: NULL
AppleTalk and MacFile Service Entries for SFM
Services For Macintosh (SFM) does not appear in the Registry until you
install SFM using the Network icon in Control Panel. After
installation, the SFM value entries appear under several Services
subkeys: AppleTalk, MacFile, MacPrint, and MacSrv. You should let the
system maintain entries in the MacPrint or MacSrv service. However,
the AppleTalk and MacFile services contain definable parameters
described in this section.
You should use the Network icon in Control Panel to configure SFM, and
use File Manager to administer file services, Server Manager to
administer server services, and Print Manager to administer print
services for SFM.
SFM is included with Windows NT Advanced Server and on the Windows NT
Resource Guide disk.
AppleTalk Entries for SFM
The values for the AppleTalk service are found in the following
Registry path:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\AppleTalk
For changes to take effect, you must restart the File Server for
Macintosh using the Devices icon in Control Panel.
Values for the AppleTalk Parameters and Adapters subkeys are described
here. The settings in the Linkage subkey and the TCP/IP settings in
the Winsock subkey for AppleTalk are maintained by the system and
should not be changed by the user.
The following are the defaults for the basic service entries:
DependOnGroup=NDIS
DependOnService=Lance
DisplayName=AppleTalk Transport
ErrorControl=0x1
ImagePath=\SystemRoot\system32\drivers\sfmatalk.sys
Start=0x2
Type=0x1
AppleTalk Parameter Entries
This is the Registry path for the AppleTalk parameters:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\AppleTalk
\Parameters
NOTE: The above registry key is one path; it has been wrapped for
readability.
These values set port, zone, and router information.
DefaultPort EG_SZ Adapter name
Specifies the network on which the SFM service names are
registered. If the AppleTalk protocol is not routing, only
Macintosh workstations connected to this network can see the file
and print services. During initial installation, the default port
is set automatically to the first Ethernet adapter found, or to the
first Token Ring adapter, or to a LocalTalk adapter (in that
order). Default: the first adapter found.
DesiredZone REG_SZ Zone name
Specifies the zone in which the SFM service is present. If this
value is not set, SFM is present in the default zone for that
network. There is no default.
EnableRouter REG_DWORD 0 or 1
Tells the AppleTalk protocol whether routing needs to be started on
this computer. If routing is started, Macintosh workstations
connected to any of the networks that this computer is on should be
able to use the file and print servers for Macintosh.
IMPORTANT: This value is critical. Unless absolutely essential, do
not set this value to 1.
Default: 0
Adapter Card Entries for AppleTalk
The entries for AppleTalk that are specific to network adapter cards
are found under the following Registry path:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\AppleTalk\Adapters
\adapter_name
NOTE: The above registry key is one path; it has been wrapped for
readability.
There is one subkey for each adapter that is AppleTalk-compatible on
the computer. These entries are found in each Adapter_Name subkey.
AarpRetries REG_DWORD Number
Specifies the maximum number of AppleTalk address-resolution
protocol packets to be sent by the AppleTalk protocol. Default: 0xa
DdpCheckSums REG_DWORD 0 or 1
Tells the AppleTalk protocol whether to compute checksums in the
DDP layer. If this entry is 1, the AppleTalk protocol uses sums in
the DDP layer. Default: 0
DefaultZone REG_SZ Zone name
Contains the default zone for this network if this adapter is
seeding the network. If the adapter is seeding the network, the
default zone is chosen when you configure SFM using the Network
icon in Control Panel. There is no default.
NetworkRangeLowerEnd REG_DWORD 1 to 65279
Specifies the lower network number of the network range if this
adapter is seeding the network. If the adapter is seeding the
network, this number is set by using the Network icon in Control
Panel to configure SFM. There is no default.
NetworkRangeUpperEnd REG_DWORD 1 to 65279
Specifies the upper network number of the network range for this
network if this adapter is seeding the network. If the adapter is
seeding the network, this number is set by using the Network icon
in Control Panel to configure SFM. There is no default.
PortName REG_SZ AdapterName@ComputerName
Specifies the name used to identify the AppleTalk protocol running
on a particular adapter on a computer. There is no default.
SeedingNetwork REG_DWORD 0 or 1
Used by the AppleTalk protocol during startup. If this value is 0,
this adapter is not seeding the network and the AppleTalk protocol
ignores any seeding information for the adapter, if specified. If
this value is 1, the AppleTalk protocol reads all seeding
information and seeds the network, if valid. Default: 0.
ZoneList REG_MULTI_SZ List of zones
This value is relevant only when the adapter is seeding the
network. The network is seeded with this list of zones by the
AppleTalk protocol. Changes can be made by using the Network icon
in Control Panel to configure SFM. There is no default.
AppleTalk Winsock Entries
The TCP/IP settings in the Winsock subkey for AppleTalk are defined by
the system and should not be changed by the user. The following shows
the defaults:
HelperDllName=C \winnt\system32\sfmwshat.dll
Mapping=
MaxSockAddrLength=0x8
MinSockAddrLength=0x6
MacFile Entries for SFM
The MacFile subkey contains the main entries for the AppleTalk File
Protocol (AFP) server. All configuration information for the file
server is in the following subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MacFile
For changes to take effect, you must restart the computer. The
MacFile\Parameters subkey includes Type_Creators, Icons, and
Extensions subkeys. You should let the system maintain entries in the
Icons or Extensions subkeys. This section describes value entries for
the Parameters and Parameters\Type_Creator subkeys.
The basic entries for the MacFile services are the following:
DependOnGroup=
DependOnService=AppleTalk LanManWorkStation NetLogon
DisplayName=File Server for Macintosh
ErrorControl=0x1
ImagePath=%SystemRoot%\system32\sfmsvc.exe
ObjectName=LocalSystem
Start=0x2
Type=0x20
MacFile Parameters Entries
The Registry path for MacFile parameters is the following:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MacFile\Parameters
The following value entries specify server options, which can be set
from the Server Manager. All other entries are added to the Registry
when changes to the default values occur.
For information about the Macintosh codepage, see the entry for MacCP
in the NLS\CodePage subkey.
LoginMsg REG_SZ 1-198 characters
Specifies the message you want Macintosh users to see when they log
on to the Windows NT Advanced Server network. There is no default.
MaxSessions REG_DWORD 1 to unlimited (0xffffffff)
Specifies the maximum number of user sessions that the file server
for Macintosh can accommodate. Default: 0xff (255 in decimal)
PagedMemLimit REG_DWORD 1000K to 256000K
Specifies the maximum amount of page memory that the file server
for Macintosh uses. Performance of the MacFile service increases
with an increase in this value. However, the value should not be
set lower than 1000 KB. It is especially important that you are
well acquainted with memory issues before changing this resource
parameter. You cannot change this value from Server Manager.
Default: 0x4e20 (20000 in decimal). PagedMemLimit is not a valid
entry for Windows NT Server version 4.0 and Windows NT 4.0 ignores this
setting if it sees it.
NonPagedMemLimit REG_DWORD 256K to 16000KB
Specifies the maximum amount of RAM that is available to the file
server for Macintosh. Increasing this value helps performance of
the file server, but decreases performance of other system
resources. Default: 0xfa0 (4000 in decimal)
ServerName REG_SZ Server name
Specifies the name of the server running SFM on a Windows NT
Advanced Server network. Use the server's Windows NT Advanced
Server name as the default if you need to add this entry. There is
no default.
ServerOptions REG_DWORD
Specifies server options that are set in Server Manager. If needed
for repair purposes, change bits 1 through 3; do not change any of
the other bits. When on, bit 1 allows guest logons, bit 2 allows
cleartext passwords, and bit 3 allows Macintosh users to save
passwords on their workstations. The defaults are bit 1, 2, and 3
set to on.
Volume REG_MULTI_SZ MaxUses Properties Password Path
Each entry specifies information about a Macintosh-accessible
volume on the server on a Windows NT Advanced Server network. You
should add Macintosh-accessible volumes using File Manager.
Value Meaning
----------------------
MaxUses Specifies the maximum number of simultaneous
workstations that can be connected to the file
server. The upper limit is unlimited. The
practical limits are based on the server
hardware and network media.
Properties Specifies security options. When bit 16 (the leftmost bit
in binary notation) is set to On, only guests can use
this volume. This is the default (1000000000000000 in
binary notation). When bit 1 (the right-most bit in
binary notation) is set to On, the volume is read-only.
For both the volume to be read-only and guests to use
this volume, the binary value would be 1000000000000001.
Password Contains the encrypted password. Do not change
this value. If a user forgets a password, you
can delete this entry, thus removing a password
requirement from the user's account. Then the
user can specify a new password at logon.
Path Specifies the path of the volume's root
directory. If a volume has been deleted,
the path may still be valid; consequently,
you should not delete this value. If volumes
are deleted using File Manager, you can
delete this value.
Type_Creators Entries for MacFile

type-creators that are associated with MS-DOS-style filename
extensions:
