mFor 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/files''' (or the other HDA shares, like //hda/docs or //hda/music/ - you can set up several if you want to).
** You can also use the HDA server's IP address instead (e.g. smb://192.168.1.50/files).
** 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.
* Enjoy, the mounted drive should appear now in the Finder and be available at /Volumes/files on your local system.
To set your system to auto-connect at login or startup, see this great intro article [http://engineering.purdue.edu/ECN/Support/KB/Docs/MacOSXConnectingToSMB here].
