Can't connect to Mountain Lion Share

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
I have set up sharing in Mountain Lion to "Windows Sharing: On" in Sharing preferences.
And in Options it has the "Share files and folders using SMB (Windows)" checked
"On - Account Name" checked

I have set my Shared Folders to my media drives (Account Name - Read & Write, Everyone - Read & Write)

When I try to access the network on Windows 7 it asks me for my username and password and gives me a list of all of the drives accessible from Mountain Lion. (Not just the media drive I have set in Sharing)
I enter my username and password but I only have access to my Mountain Lion drive. (in HFS+ Journaled oddly enough.. I thought Windows wasn't able to see that file system?) Anyways, the Mountain Lion drive is not where I put my media because it isn't big enough for all of it.

When I try to access my media drives it says that I don't have permission to access the drive.

Soo, I am now pretty much stumped. The filesystem for my media drives is exFAT which is accessible by any new operating system (which is the reason that I am using it). Any ideas?

Odd. The only thing I can think of right now is seeing as exFAT is a permissionless filesystem (everything has read/write access), and OSX does want to apply then while sharing, it somehow gets screwed up and you're blocked out by default.

Did it work under earlier versions of OSX?

Yep, it worked fine in Snow Leopard and Lion. I'll see if I can access my other HFS+ and NTFS drives from Windows 7 to see if it is indeed a exFAT issue. Will keep you posted.
Any idea if Mountain Lion has enabled HFS+ sharing to Windows in it's newest release? I didn't think that Snow Leopard and Lion did that?
Thanks,

Hi smile.gif

We run 10.6 server at work, with mostly 10.6 clients connecting to a HFS+ share, but also a handfull of XP machines through SMB. Works flawless. I don't know all the inns and outs, but I guess SMB makes the translation..
