Mac osx lion

rickmann08 · 01-08-2012, 05:31 PM

Ok, so I decided to upgrade my setup with a used MAC PRO which is running OSX LION, Problem I am having is trying to connect it my Snap 2200 (yeah I know its an old server but trustworthy). It sees the server over the network but when I try to connect to it I get an error message saying" The version of the server you are trying to connect to is not supported". I have tried connecting through AFP and SMB with no luck.

Can anyone suggest a fix?

Thanks!

I no longer have a SnapOS unit to test against. I will be at a place that my client will need to do the same thing later on this week.

Normally smb://ipadress/share works.

Can your connect via web browser?

blue68f100 thanks for the info. Thanks! I will try that out. I am assuming that "share works" is the name of your root folder or drive?

To be honest I have never tried to work directly from my web browser. I can access the server from my browser on my PC but I just use it to see the file names.

Please let me know if you were able to get your clients server to work.

Thanks
Rick

Share name without the works. What I was saying it works....

Oh got it! I am going to try what you said this weekend. I will let you know if it works.

Check this link for a possible workaround, OS X LION connection error with AFP and workaround

thanks rpmurray, I actually tried that as well but had no luck

Ultimately I had to switch back to snow leopard. Could the 2200 been too old and the mac just wouldn't bite?

Thanks
Rick

Have you tried using NFS?? I can't say about Lion, but I have used NFS for years to log into snapOS and GuardianOS. Goto finder do apple+K and proper syntax would be nfs://serverIP/Share1

Just wanted to update this issue.

Running 10.7.5

The Apple fix has been updated here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT200160?viewlocale=en_US

It doesn't work for me.

Other updated methods can be found here:
http://www.macwindows.com/Lion-broke...-servers-.html
and
http://www.macwindows.com/Another-ta...-problems.html

I found no resolution.

OTOH, the suggestion for using NFS in the previous post still works for this legacy equipment.

As of today, OS X 10.7.5, and Win7 can still be used with the Snap OS.

Which means this experiment is still running as an archive system to this day.

I hope everyone has been well!
