Idea: (this is brilliant, as it is really how TCP is designed, and it works on all platforms as well)

 

1. Give computer 1-4 IP adresses 10.1.1.1 <> 10.1.1.4

2. Use CMD+K in Finder, use afp://10.1.1.x for server connections.

 

This is essentialy stripped-down zero configuration networking. Take out the middle man, just configure this in all Network panes on the computers.

I've actually already done that. I'm using an airport and couldn't figure out how to manually assign ips under 10.0.1.200 and still allow the airport to assign an ip to a visiting computer, but it works fine with 10.0.1.201 and so on added to my favorits list, but then again if there is a visiting computer I have to look up what adress was asigned to it and then connect. Doesn't seem very Mac to me. Proabbly won't be an issue witht the final release. I was just wondering if other people are haveing the same prob or if it's just me.

 

Thanks for the reply kazuran
