    HOWTO: Make Windows XP log into a Samba Share

    Well im sure we all know by now to use the cleartext option if we aren't going to use encrypted passwords, but one thing that I found after hours of trying to get XP to log onto my share was that signorseal on the xp box needs to be turned off. To do this open regedit and go to the...

    Hiding a name in the log in menu

    No kidding, this was never a problem before 10.1... I don't see any change in netinfo, it has to be some sort of preference file..

    Que Fire 24/10/40 under 10.1

    I just bought a 24x10x40 generic firewire drive with a lighton mechanism. It toast saw it all the time under 9, but under 10 it is a bit quirky sometimes. If i try a finder burn it stops burning as its closing the session and just sits there. If i force quit the OS wont see the firewire drive...

    OSX goes through 20-30 sec. pauses where nothing happens

    The hang is most likely a DNS issue. Next time you hang open up the console app in the utilities folder and check for a DNS timeout. You may have some of your DNS settings wrong.

    Does anyone know if we have the ability to mount windows shares yet? If so, how do we go about doing that? I can't seem to figure it out.

    Windows

    I am having the same problem. In the server admin help it also suggests turning on clear text passwords. I remember seeing that setting somewhere but i cannot find it now. Even with encryption on it still does not let me log on, whats the deal?

    Very Frustrated with OS X Privileges

    Yeah, like i said read up on the terminal if you don't know how to use it or enable root and login (in aqua) and fix your stuff. Its probably the easiest way to do it.

    Very Frustrated with OS X Privileges

    Well, i hear your pain. It takes a while to get used to the whole priv thing but you will. In my eyes apple still has a ways to go to get its copy working right.. something always fails. But anyhow. You should save all your personal stuff to your user directory only. The only thing you don't...

    new programmer for Mac OS X?

    C++ might be easier to understand when implimenting the classes at first, but its much much harder to use. Don't let those brackets scare you away! Here's what they mean c++ class called testObject with a function called returnValue of type int. int a = testObject.returnValue()...

    new programmer for Mac OS X?

    I'll have to agree that you should start with something small (preferably cross platform) first and work your way up. I started off after Hypercard, applescript, and HTML with ANSI C++ and then slowly taught myself C toolbox. I really am not a big java fan so i've never spent much time on it...

    MultiThread Communication

    Finally got all the network stuff in my app working (had to use the BSD sockets). I've got the connection object running in its own thread... my only problem is thread communication (i need to let the thread know there is data to send to the server). Im pretty sure i'd use NSNotifier for that...

    Obj C + TCP/IP

    Hey guys, I've been looking for good docs on OSX + objective C TCP/IP programming. I've got the basic interface done for an IRC client and just need to impliment the network side. I'm assuming i'll need to brush up on threads... but what object is used for networking?!?! I'm guessing...
