Unable to acces Ibays
« on: October 17, 2002, 09:01:55 AM »
Just upgraded 4.1.2 -> 5.5.

Client machine:
Mac Os9.2.2 (G4)

Problem:

Cannot get ibays to 'open'.

I can see the esmith server and all the ibays in the 'network browser', but cannot open them. My login and password are taken, but when i double click on one of the ibays, nothing happens. No 'virtual drive' displayed ion my desktop.

No access to files on server :(

Hope someone can help...

thanks in advance,
Brad

OK...  just found I can open ibays using the 'chooser'.
IE I have to go into the chooser, select appletalk, select the esmith server, then hit 'ok'... once Ive done this (after a bootup) I can access the ibays normally (thru the 'network browser').

I assume then, that this is a mac thing??? Anyone experianced this?? Answeres??

Its as if the chooser keeps resetting the connection at each bootup. This did not happen under 4.1.2 (esmith).

So, problem is half fixed, but not fully.. at least i can access ibays tho..... phew :)
