brendankoch Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Hi, When I try to enable Personal File Sharing in sys prefs it won't start. It just says that it is starting up but it stays like that forever. Anyone have a solution? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/16506-personal-file-sharing-broken-in-1046/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
brendankoch Posted May 2, 2006 Author Share Posted May 2, 2006 What kext gets used by the Personal File Sharing pref? It worked fine in 10.4.5 so if I know which kext I can try to copy it over from 10.4.5.

Suser Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Should be smbfs.kext and the mount_smbfs tool (i think) from the 10.4.5 DVD. It is in the /sbin folder.

brendankoch Posted May 2, 2006 Author Share Posted May 2, 2006 I saw that earlier and I tried it but I thought that that was for windows sharing and not for file sharing between macs. Am I wrong?

toddicus Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 I know this is an old post but maybe someone will see this and have a solution. That other topic is about SMB file sharing and not "personal file sharing" or AFP file sharing with other macs. Anyone have a solution? I can't figure it out or find any more posts about it. thanks Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/16506-personal-file-sharing-broken-in-1046/#findComment-150232 Share on other sites More sharing options...
lounger540 Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 I'm having this problem too. AFP is different from SMB. I want to share the love between my MBP and Hackintosh Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/16506-personal-file-sharing-broken-in-1046/#findComment-169643 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ѕӎѳѳ₮ңӌ Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 I am also having this problem, I will try the smb fix, hopefully they share a framework or something. If not, this really needs fixing.
