When I'm connected to a file server I can't see certain files...

Asked by artificialard (2273points) October 16th, 2007

So there’s a LaCie Ethernet mini disk which is basically a self-contained file server. All the clients currently connect using the SMB protocol despite being on iMacs running Mac OS X 10.4. The file server has support for AFP but when I try to mount the server share using AFP I only see files at the root level; all the root folders are empty after that.

When mounting it as an SMB all the files show with no problem. I would like to have clients connect through AFP as an all Apple environment it would be better – what’s the best way to fix the problem?
