Hi there, I hope someone can help me!
I'll try and keep this short and concise:
First problem: Osx windows networking was not working, the only way to fix it each time was to go into the system prefs, disable networking, then re-enabling networking. Doing this allowed my other computers to access the mac, but I had to do this every time, after every reboot.
- I thought that installing SMBup (http://eduo.info/apps/smbup) which installs the old samba system that snow leopard used, would fix my problem -
Now: Samba doesn't automatically start either! I have to load the SMBup control panel every time I turn on my mac, and tell it to start the service again. And sometimes it will just disable itself randomly.
Summary: It seems I am having the same issue whether I use the default osx lion networking, or samba - the network service just won't start unless I force them to.
Please! some osx guru out there, help me out!
