We had a power outage last night. I restarted my UNRAID server (rc5) and attempted to connect in my usual manner via AFP. I could not authenticate. I keep getting a "wrong password" indication.

 

I'm running OS X 10.8.1 on both machines from which I've tried to connect. Everything looks fine on the server. I can connect without problem via SMB. All files, etc. are available. I've tried both public and private SMB security settings to make sure the user name/PW is working -- it does. I have checked and re-checked all the settings. Everything is correct and configured exactly as it was prior to the outage.

 

I've restarted AFP, SMB, both system-wide and on each share. I've deleted and recreated all the users. I've restarted the server several times.

 

Obviously Time Machine will no longer work with this server, so that's my biggest concern at the moment.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks!

Restart the Mac?

Yeah, I restarted both Macs as well. A couple of times. No dice.

 

Then I used my wife's Macbook Pro, which is still running OS X 10.7.4 (Lion) and it worked flawlessly.

 

So I went back to my two Mountain Lion Macs, and strangely, they are working just fine now.

 

WEIRD

 

I didn't do anything to the ML Macs. After my success on the MBP I thought I'd try creating a new user to see if there was something wrong with my config. Before I got to even try that, I was able to mount UNRAID. The only delta in the situation was connecting to UNRAID via a different version of OS X. AFP works fine, Time Machine is working again. Everything.

 

Whatever it is, I'll take it.
