October 7, 200916 yr Just wanna check if ne one else is having issues seeing there tower over samba in snow leopard.
October 7, 200916 yr Just wanna check if ne one else is having issues seeing there tower over samba in snow leopard. No, none. I don't tend to 'browse' to it though - just use finder to go directly there via smb://myip Have you a specific issue?
October 7, 200916 yr i browse to it and i'm not having any issues i think once when i went into a share and a listing didnt display, i clicked the server again in finder, went to the share and the listing was there
October 7, 200916 yr the only issues I am having are permissions related. I can't change the names of folders using Finder.
October 10, 200916 yr Shows up fine for me on 4 different macs running 10.6. But it's not updated sometimes with windows pcs connecting to the network, a restart usually solves that. But i usually just connect to IP as mentioned above.
October 20, 200916 yr Except that the Samba performance is known to be bad (due to a ancient Samba client) (35 MB/s on SMB, versus 75 MB/s on AFP). But that's not new in Snow Leopard... this was the same on Leopard and even worse on Tiger.
October 23, 200916 yr Works for me as well... by the way dlmh did you ever get AFP to work with user shares?
October 23, 200916 yr I still can't change folder names on my Unraid system, but apparently others can. Wish I knew what was different between my setup and other Snow Leopard uses who can change folder names. This was not a problem using 10.5

Wish I knew what was different between my setup and other Snow Leopard uses who can change folder names. This was not a problem using 10.5 Did you do and upgrade install or a clean install? I always do a clean install when it comes to new versions of Operating systems. Another thing you might be able to try is a reinstall of the latest OS X update. Download the combo updater and reinstall it. I have not updated to Snow Leopard yet as there are a few Programs that I need to use that are not supported yet.

Wish I knew what was different between my setup and other Snow Leopard uses who can change folder names. This was not a problem using 10.5 permissions? Can you create new folders and rename? I don't have any security setup on my system.
October 23, 200916 yr I just upgraded 10.6.1 again. I don't think it is permissions - I can create and delete foldrs, just not rename them. This is Snow Leopard related.
October 23, 200916 yr I'm running 10.6.1 which was upgraded from a 10.5.8 system (which was upgraded from 10.4.x). I mount my unRAID user shares via smb:// (but not user accounts). No issues renaming/deleting/permissions/etc from within the Finder or using 3rd party programs like VMWare Fusion, Path Finder, and others.
October 23, 200916 yr What version of unRaid are you using? I had a similar problem with a wdtv live box i bought this week, I couldn't browser folders. I had to upgrade to the latest version of unRaid and that resolved.
October 26, 200916 yr It is a pain not being able to name new folders or rename existing folders so I formatted, installed Snow Leopard and used Time Machine to recreate my accounts. Now I can change when not in Column Browser. From googling it seems that newer versions of SAMBA might not play well with OS X ancient SAMBA version
