- Launch NetInfo Manager; it is located in the
/Applications/Utilities folder.
- Authenticate by clicking on the lock in the lower left corner.
- Click on the
/mounts directory.
- Click on "New+" icon. An item named
"new_directory" will appear.
- Double-click on the value
"new_directory" for the "name" property and change it to "servername:/export".
You can use the IP address, the hostname or the fully qualified hostname in place of servername.
- Select "New Property" from the "Directory" menu. Set the property name to
"vfstype". Set the value to:
"url" if this is an AFP sharepoint or
"nfs" if this is an NFS sharepoint.
- Skip this step for statically mounted NFS sharepoints. Otherwise, select "New Property" from the "Directory" menu. Set the property name to "opts". If this is a dynamically mounting NFS sharepoint, set the value to "net". Follow the instructions below for static and dynamic AFP sharepoints:
Special steps for AFP sharepoints only:
+ Set the "opts" value to:
url==afp://;AUTH=NO%20USER%20AUTHENT@servername/sharepoint
+ If this sharepoint will mount dynamically, click on the opts property and select "Insert Value" from the "Directory" menu. Set the value to "net".
- Select "New Property" from the "Directory" menu. Set the property to "dir". If this sharepoint will mount dynamically, set the value to "/Network/Servers/". If this is a statically mounted sharepoint, set the value to "/Network/sharepoint".
- Select "Save Changes" from the "Domain" menu and restart the computer. Verify that the sharepoint mounted correctly in the appropriate location in the /Network directory.
