Latest News: Firmware Version 5.30
Note
for Upgrades
CAUTION!
For firmware versions 5.10, 5.20, 5.30 and later, this Latest News
supplements the other documents distributed with your
HP SureStore CD/DVD-ROM Server (HP J3278B, J4150A,
J4152A). It replaces the Latest News: Firmware Version 5.10
(
5969-3510).
P/N
This release 5.30 can be used to upgrade only the releases
starting with 5.06. It cannot be used with releases starting
with version 4.00, such as those used with the HP SureStore
CD-ROM Server/Tower (HP J3276A, J3277A, J3278A). Your
existing firmware version is identified on the Administration
web page for This Server, when the server is highlighted (and
in the config.ini file in the ServerProperties folder in the
System folder).
User-Level Access Control for Windows
Now Managed with Native NT Tools
You can now manage the server's Windows (SMB) user-level
security in the same way you manage it for your other NT servers.
The HP CD/DVD-ROM Server now emulates a Windows NT 4.0
server. You use more of the native tools for NT servers, such as
User Manager for Domains. You can add, remove, and change
rights on the Properties page for a folder.
User-level security as described here is recommended for networks
based on Windows NT Server. Note that share-level security is the
alternative recommended for Windows workgroup-based networks
without a domain controller (also known as the PDC, DC, or
authentication server).
If you had configured user-level access rights on the server and
you now upgrade to firmware version 5.20 or later, then all
previous access rights configured for SMB will be removed.
HP recommends that before you upgrade the firmware, you
check and record any special user access settings you have:
Click the Administration tab, click [Discs & Drives], click the
icon in the Access Rights column, and click the Windows
Security tab.
