    Sorry to say we do not have this product NAS-R3 SOHO, we only have NAS-R3 Enterprise. We do support the AppleTalk protocol to access shares on the NAS-R3 Enterprise Server. I have not seen any issue in our records with the 2GB max share size with our software either.

    For testing and verifying the NAS-R3 Enterprise, I would download the Demo-CD from the website below. This will take a very short time to evaluate to give your customer verification that he needs. When accessing the link you will be sent an access code then re-enter the site. In the downloads section you will see a Quick Start Guide, please read this.

    Just to give you a short version of our help section on AFP.

    How to use AppleTalk with the NAS server:
    • In the setup -> NAS server enable AppleTalk,
    • In setup ->NAS resources menu select a share that you want to be shared with AppleTalk,
    • Enable AppleTalk for this share.
    '''How to connect to the NAS AppleTalk server:'''
    In MAC OS 9:
    • Open the Chooser (APPLE MENU->Chooser),
    • Click on AppleShare,
    • If the Server "NAS" does not appear in the fileserver list click "Server IP address" and enter the NAS server IP,
    • Click "OK" and choose a login type. Enter a user name and password if you want to login as a specified user,
    • From available options select shares that you want to mount,
    • The icon of the mounted share will appear on the desktop,
    • To open the share click on its icon,
    • To unmount the share drop its icon onto the trash.
    In MAC OSX 10.3:
    • Click on the MAC HD, then Applications then Utilities,
    • From the Directory Access check if AppleTalk is active; if not -> activate it,
    • If the server "NAS" does not appear in the Network list, open a web browser and enter the IP address of the AppleTalk server. afp://192.168.1.3 (very important --> "afp://" ),
    • Choose a login type. Enter a user name and password when you want to login as a specific user,
    • If you can not log in, click on the Directory Access/Authentication and change the path to search for authentication information,
    • From available shares select all you want to mount,
    • The icon of any mounted share will appear on the desktop.
    or second example is:
    • Click on "Connect to server" from the Finder (GO submenu),
    • Enter: afp://address_ip,
    • You can add a link to the AFP server by clicking on the "+" sign. This adds a link to the computer in the Favorite Servers field,
    • Choose a login type, enter a password if you want to login as a specific user,
    • From available shares select all you want to mount,
    • The icon of the mounted share will appear on the desktop.
    Location
    CONFIGURATION -> NAS settings -> Function: AppleTalk (AFP) Settings.
    All the best,
