Help Me!!!-

I think I have a problem with my chooser. I have server volume icons on my desktop but there are more volumes that I need to get to. I go to the chooser, click on AppleShare and on the righthand side my server name appears under the words, "Select a file server." When I click on that server and say "ok" I freeze everytime! Can you tell me what's happening here? I can't get to any of the other server volumes. It's strange because it's happened really suddenly.

Thanks alot,

No Name,

What version of AppleShare client are you using? GOTO the System Folder/Extenstions, click on AppleShare and do a Command-I. There appears to be a problem if you are connecting to an AppleShare IP server. The following info was found on www.info.apple.com:

* If the Chooser freezes for 2 minutes when trying to connect to a TCP
server, use the AppleShare Client Setup utility (available on the AppleShare
IP website URL:) to reduce the
TCP Connect Timeout from 120 seconds to 20 seconds. Reducing the TCP
Connect Timeout may make connecting to AFP servers over the Internet
impossible.
