Ensure that your setup meets the requirements in the following sections:
 Section 4.10.1, “Server Requirements in a Workgroup,” on page 62
 Section 4.10.2, “Workgroup Configuration Requirements,” on page 62

4.10.1
Server Requirements in a Workgroup
The pair must be hosted on a Dynamic File Services server that is located in the same Windows
Workgroup as the remote shares.
In a Windows Workgroup, install Dynamic File Services on a supported Windows server. For
information, see “Supported Platforms” in the Dynamic File Services 2.2 Installation Guide.
The installation must be done by a user that has Administrator rights on the server. This allows the
DynamicFS management groups to be created on the server, as described in Section 4.2,
“Management Groups,” on page 52. To add members to the Dynamic File Services group on the
server, see Section 6.3.3, “Setting Up Administrators in a Workgroup,” on page 104.
4.10.2
Workgroup Configuration Requirements
Your Workgroup setup must meet the following requirements:
 The host name of each computer in the Workgroup must be unique.
 On the Dynamic File Services server, the Service must be run as the Administrator user. The
Administrator user password must be the same on each participating computer or filer. This
user must have all file system rights to the primary share and the secondary share.
On a Windows XP computer, all computers in the workgroup must have the same user account
with the same password. The user account must have all share access rights to all of the shares
that you plan to use. The Service must run as this user account. The user must be granted the
Logon as a Service right. If you set the Service to run as a user, then the Windows service
controller sets this right for you.
 On Windows Server 2008 and 2008 R2, the following services must be running and be
configured to start for every boot in order for Dynamic File Services to work with remote paths:
 Function Discovery Resource Publication
 Simple Service Discovery Protocol (SSDP)
 Universal Plug and Play (UPnP)
 Computer Browser
After these services are started, go to the Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network and
Sharing Center > Sharing and Discovery option, then turn on Network Discovery.
