Betreff: [OmniOS-discuss] Best way to share files with Mac?
Hi.
I have to support a few mac machines connecting to a few file shares
running Omnios.
They are reporting problems with the speed when using the "finder".
I see there is a netatalk package I can download and compile off of
sourceforge, which looks fairly current.
Any suggestions on the best way forward to support Mac machines?
thanks,
Geoff
well, the current Netatalk 3.1.x packages will of course get you Mac
connectivity, but you should probably go with SMB instead, as no one actually
knows, when Apple will pull AFP from macOS. I know that AFP/Netatalk is very
fast - we have been using it on Solaris11 for a long time now, but it is in no
way future-proof.
I think it would make more sense to fix the speed issues, you're seeing when
using SMB. What speed issues are you experiencing?
Cheers,
Stephan
Hello Stephan.
I am not 100% sure exactly what the issues are with the finder. I
wanted to make sure I was focusing on the right protocol first.
Manuel suggests going with Samba, which I have been looking at for a
couple of years, but nothing really made me want to put the effort into it.
thanks!!
Geoff
