Mac mini in the living room w/ external 500gb (iTunes library on it)
hardwired to the network via cat5
I have a mdd, g5 powermac, g5 imac in the office. Each machine is
named specifically different as not to conflict with any other and
all are hardwired to the network via network switch.
Here's the fun part.... when the mini is booted up, the "Computer
Name in the sharing prefs folder (system prefs) changes from "Mac
Mini" to "Mac Mini (2)" ??? I've changed this computer name various
times only to have it do the (2) thing over and over again? normally
this wouldn't be a big issue but I hate having to type my user
password in every time it does it. any clues as to why I keep getting
the (2)?
