Enlarge screenshot Compaq's dedication to the neophyte user shines through in most every aspect of the product. Everything you need is available right out of the box, including two separate user guides. The standard guide offers detailed information. The NeoServer 150 can handle up to 100 users, and it comes with 100 licenses. You specify which model you want when ordering.
Wireless adapters are available separately.
If, on the other hand, you have experience with networking and want high granularity with your server configuration, the Neo Server 150's management interface will disappoint you. But the unit does allow the administrator to control folder ownership and access permissions, and Internet access can be controlled for individual internal users. Second, as with all the server appliances reviewed, you need to set up the NeoServer 150 through a separate computer. We had difficulty getting the client configuration tool to work on Microsoft Windows 2000 Server, although we were able to get it to configure manually. The Compaq documentation indicates that the tool should work on Windows 2000 Professional, and we did get it to work easily with Windows 98.
