Re: disabling all Bonjour announcements and "wondering" that SMB is no longer visible - I followed what I believed were the suggestions of and described the results. In conclusion, I want to keep my personal files on the NAS secure when guests are connected to my router. So I assume guests on Windows will connect as guest? I'm not sure how this would go I should test on a guest's Windows machine to be sure. So I assume guests would be challenged with credentials for the SMB connection.ĩ) The Parallels image is connecting to the NAS with my user account, although I've never entered credentials on the Parallels Win7 image. I'm pretty sure I've never connected to the NAS as admin via my girlfriend's Mac.ħ) However, I'll investigate the keychain on both machines and attempt to remove admin on all connections to the NAS, so that it will stop connecting as admin.Ĩ ) On both my and my girlfriend's Mac, if I disconnect from the SMB icon, it requests authentication again if I reconnect. The "blue cheapo NAS" icon is redundant for my needs, but I can live with it if it would only connect as guest.Ħ) To the best of my knowledge, I have never connected to the NAS as admin via my Mac (except ssh). in the top-level Multimedia directory.ĥ) SMB seems fastest on my Mac, faster than AFP. They may have either OSX or Windows machines.Ĥ) I only want them to be able to browse the NAS as a guest, where they can view public documents - music, photos, videos, etc. I store all that information under the home directory of my user account.ģ) I often have friends and family over that I allow to connect to my router. In the future it will be both OSX and native Windows, when I go back to Windows.Ģ) On my NAS is sensitive information that I want to keep private. Rather than saying what I want to *do*, perhaps it's better if I just describe my *problem*, and you (or someone else if you're sick of my posts) can suggest the correct approach.ġ) My NAS is in a home environment, with OSX and Windows via Parallels. I don't purposely post obtuse messages, and I am honestly trying my best. Also apologies that my networking knowledge is less than most folks here. Neither Apple nor Microsoft do suggest to suppress any standard for not making my issue clearer. ![]() What is not part of the NAS documentation - because this is documented along with OS X and Windows. If you are challenge for a username/password when accessing a NAS shared folder - take it as an indication for "there is something wrong with the NAS access rights for this Windows user" - do _not_ enter any credentials. Get rid of stored NAS credentials from there. Yes, there is a credentials store (something similar to the OS X key chain) associate with each user - once you start storing credentials there you _will_ have these issues. That's all you should ever use on Windows in a work group. ![]() The first credentials Windows (and I'm talking of Vista/7/8.1 - anything else must no longer exist, but it was the same back with XP and Windows for Workgroups ) - are the username and password use for the Windows login. ![]() let me explain (no OS war, however Windows is 20 years ahead of OS X here ). If your Windows system does automatically connect using an unwanted user. If your OS X system does connect automatically using an unwanted user - yes, drop the user from key chain. problem solved.Īside - you can't fully disable Bonjour if using Time Machine on the NAS - you will always see a nasname(TImeMachhine) announcement. Still don't want to see any SHARED network devices in the OS X Finder left bar? Mouse over SHARED -> hide. When open "All" (last point in the SHARED list, you see the Bonjour announced AFP and SMB servers _plus_ the Windows File Servers announced by a different broadcast protocol. In the OS X Finder left bar, Apple does present under SHARED all AFP and SMB service announcements. kind of a useless Bonjour announcement feature.Īpps for iXXXX QNAP iOS apps need this for NAS discovery. kind of a useless Bonjour announcement feature.ĭLNA Media Server Again, a service announced by UPnP SSDP as per the standard, a dedicated protocol permitting DLNA DMC and DMP to discover the NAS DMS - no reason to have it duplicated here. Not aware of an OS X browser using these. HTTPS One would assume Safari would be able using these SSL announcements as with "NAS Web" above. unless you have an FTP application offering the usage of Bonjour discovery. kind of a useless Bonjour announcement feature.įTP (File Transfer Protocol). unless you have an SSH application offering the usage of Bonjour discovery. this is the same you see on Windows Explorer -> NetworkĪFP (Apple File Protocol over TCP/IP) The AFP share access becomes visible in the OS X Finder left bar (space permitting) and in the "All" main section. ![]()
