Network Security Choices:
- Set the maximum number of connections. The maximum is 120 and the default is 50. Restart the server to see the new number take effect. AppleShare allocates 2K of memory at startup for each connection.
- Set the minimum number of characters in a password. Eight characters is the maximum and zero is the default.
- Set the number of days until a password expires. When the password expires, users get a prompt to enter a new word if they have the privilege to change passwords. For a temporary account, set the number of days until expiration for the duration of the account and deny the change-password privilege.
- Set the maximum number of failed log-on attempts. This disables the account when someone tries multiple random passwords to gain access. The administrator must reactivate the account.
- Require a password at startup time. This disables the "Save my name and password" option in the Chooser dialog that allows a choice of servers to mount at startup.
