I am trying ConnectMeNow for the first time. Ou servers are setup to not allow PINGs for security reasons. I unchecked the box 'Ping before mount' in the Advanced Options but mounting keeps failing with the message 'Mount attempt aborted - Server ping failed' The servers will mount through the Finder.
macOS 26.2
ConnectMeNow 4.0.18 ARM

Welcome to the forum and thank you for posting your question here and providing the proper details 😊 

There are 3 places where this is set:

1) under Preferences - Mount Related Options: "Always Ping before mount". This would make CMN ping always.

2) The "Default New Share Template" setting.

Both visible in this screenshot

3) Per individual (created) share

Please make sure it's unchecked in all 3 locations - just to make sure.

If this still triggers a ping, then I'll have to go dig into the code and fix this - so please let me know 😉
