<p>So we're looking at these two, and the first one is mounted with ConnectMeNow and the second one manually (in this example here)?</p>
<pre contenteditable="false">//username@minerva.somelocalserver.local/Design%20Art on /Volumes/Design Art (smbfs, nodev, nosuid, mounted by josh)

<p>Same server, samer user ... yet "Art Staff" doesn't mount.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Just an idea, to test and see if we missed something <strong>in ConnectMeNow</strong>:</p>
<p>1. Disable the share that doesn't work (Art Staff)</p>
<p>2. Find the one that work (Design Art) in the list of shares and select it (in ConnectMeNow).</p>
<p>3. Click the "<strong>Copy</strong>" button</p>
615
<p>4. in the copied version -only- change the path to "Art Staff" (without the quotes)</p>
<p>Try again if this one works.</p>
<p>If this works then something is "off" with the one you had defined before.<br />If this does not work, then something is "off" possibly on the server.</p>
<p>Let me know if this works, I'd be more than happy to see if we can get to the bottom of this &#x1f60a; </p>]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Thanks. It is an SMB connection from the Mac to a Windows 2022 share. Literally no difference between the connections that work and the one that does not. The only thing I am doing is changing the name of the shared folder. So in one that works the share name is "Design Art" which connects and I change that to "Art Staff" which does not. Again, I can open finder and connect to server and connect to and mount "Art Staff". All of these are a part of a domain (which the Macbook is not but authenticates through Nomad). </p>
<p> </p>
<p>The same exact setup on another Mac works just fine. It's very odd.</p>]]></content:encoded>

<p>sorry to hear you're running into issue.</p>
<p>Can you provide more info on the type of connection, the settings you've used, etc?<br />It would be helpful to see the difference compared to those that do work.<br />Also, the output of the "mount" command in Terminal may be helpful when the user mounted the share manually &#x1f60a; </p>
<p>Note: modify the info if needed. Eg. change username/password if somehow displayed.</p>]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We have about 1/2 dozen folders to mount on a server for a user. Most work except for 1 from within ConnectMeNow however I can connect to and mount the same folder from within Finder. I've tried clearing the preferences files for ConnectMeNow, uninstalling, copy existing working connections, creating brand new. The mount fails from ConnectMeNow but I can then turn around and connect through finder with no issue. The Mac is a brand new M3Max Sonoma Macbook Pro. Any help would be appreciated. Like I said the user can connect through Finder but it would be nice to have all this working through ConnectMeNow for auto mounting.</p>]]></content:encoded>
