I have different shares (so I can differentiate) exported both ways
(NFS, SMB). If it makes a difference I'm running wireless on the
powerbook (but then so is VPC ;-)
when I try by using the ip address and the name of the share I get the
following message:
"Could not connect to the server because the name or password is not
correct" this is puzzling as I know I've created a user/pw combo that
matches my X login.
when I tried on a different server it 'looked' like it connected, the
properties said I had R/W but I could not create anything there or see
anything there.
most puzzling
I have tons of 'stuff' for my newt and it would be nice to get access to
it ;-)
