For accessing Amahi shared folders/files on a Mac OS X computer, you use the Finder. Select the Go menu, then:
- Connect to Server (Apple-K shortcut).
- Enter the Server Address: smb://hda/Movies (or the other HDA shares, like //hda/Docs or //hda/Music/ - you can set up as many as you have shares).
- You can also use the HDA server's IP address instead (e.g. smb://192.168.1.50/Movies).
- Press the "+" sign beside the Server Address line, so the connection is saved as a favorite.
- Click Connect.
- Complete the SMB/CIFS File System Authentication form:
- Domain: HDA
- Name: <your HDA username>
- Password: <your HDA user password>
- Check the Remember this password in my keychain so you can auto-connect in the future.
