Next, I went back into the settings and re-enabled SMB File Sharing.ĭespite the fact that the system settings weren’t any different I can once again access shared files over SMB. Every time I entered my credentials the login prompt shook to indicate it didn’t work.įinally, I just went into the File Sharing Options, unchecked SMB (AFP wasn’t checked to start with) and saved this change. Though the short name, originally established under Snow Leopard, for the account had been working I tried using only the long name. While troubleshooting the issue I repaired permissions on the drive, but that didn’t make a difference. I don’t know if this actually caused the problem (or if it even could). The only major change I made on the iMac since yesterday was to run a Full Defrag using iDefrag 2. I could also access that Mac via Screen Sharing using the same credentials that File Sharing wasn’t accepting. I could access file shares on other machines from that Mac without a problem. The file sharing was working only a day prior. Today I discovered that I could no longer access shared files on my iMac from a MacBook Pro via SMB File Sharing.
I must disable and then re-enable File Sharing to get it working again. The Short Version: Every now and then File Sharing on the target machine running OS X Lion quits working.
