Hello,

 

I have a problem with bonjour and apple file sharing, it doesn't work automatically. I have to run netstat to make it works, but I have to do this each time I log in !

 

If anyone has a clue, you're welcome !

 

Specs: Fujitsu-Siemens Laptop

SpeedStep kernel

NIC : Realtek RTL8169

 

Thanx

Well, maybe I was not precise enough.

 

So when I log in, I can only see the Windows Network. I have no iTunes Shared Libraries, no Bonjour features. If I run Bonjour Browser, it shows only my own services but not those from other computers.

 

When I run netstat (either from Network Utility or Terminal) everything is ok.

 

Is there a way to get this working without running netstat at each login ?

ok.. then not much I can help you then.

I don't have the same mobo as you do, but in overall,

limiting the network speed to 10Mbps is much more stable in my rig.

Try that just in case.

system preference -> network -> advanced -> ethernet is where you can

change the connection type.

 

but I want to ask you one thing. you are saying that running netstat helps.

but how are you running netstat command in the terminal?

 

rktr

will try limiting the connection one of this day. But maybe you've noticed this problem seems very rare. So I don't have much hope.

 

And for netstat in terminal, just type netstat in a shell, you don't even need to log as super user. The command is in /usr/sbin I think.

 

Anyway, thanx for your help (you're the only one who tried) !

For some reason, I believe this is not the fault of your H/W or setup.

 

Leopard seems to have some issues with AFP and SMB share. I also have some AFP issue

myself on GA-P35-DS4 (Realtek 8111B)....

For my case, using RealtekR1000.kext almost solve my issue (still some small glitches).

So, I run some test on Tiger (on the same H/W and same set of network drivers), everything

run perfect !

 

Solution ? Since I keeps hearing about Leopard's Bonjour problem and even have some AFP/SMB

issue on my wife's MacBook,.... I'm waiting for 10.5.2 :blink:

I think I have the same problem. I can't see other itunes shares, but can connect to my hackintosh itunes share from another computer. Everything else seems to be working. I can connect to the smb and afp shares, on the same computers.

 

I tried running netstat but it didn't do anything, I might be doing somthing wrong. I haven't tried the RealtekR1000.kext yet. I needed it for ethernet in 10.4, but the ethernet worked out of the box in 10.5, I'll try that later.

 

My MB is a ga-p35-ds3p.

 

edit: I installed RealtekR1000.kext and it fixed my iTunes problem.
