So, let’s start by explaining what “ mounting network shares” means.Īttaching a directory located on a different computer, shared over a network, to your computer as if it was a local disk drive. Mounting Network Shares with ConnectMeNow Support for this version has been stopped. Outdated version – Version 4 has been releasedĮven though this version will still work, it has been replaced by a newer version ConnectMeNow v4. All the steps combined in a short video.Generate Private and Public keys, and Push the Public Key to the server.5 SSH Logins - Use a Password or a SSH Key.2 Getting started with Mounting Network Shares and ConnectMeNow.ConnectMeNow - What happened to version 2?.1 Mounting Network Shares with ConnectMeNow.So after months of work, I’d like to present ConnectMeNow v3, which hopefully makes working with shares easier for you as well. In Finder, a server doesn’t always appear right away, we need to go through a list of shares on a given “server”, get confused if we need SMB, CIFS, FTP, SSH, WebDAV, NFS or AFP, and I’m not even mentioning the need to enter a username and password on protected shares.įor this reason I created ConnectMeNow – initially just for personal use.īut the arrival of the 64 bit requirement, mandatory signed applications, and notarization requirements, and Catalina issues, my original old version was simply outdated. Unfortunately, it is still cumbersome under macOS X to connect to those “ shares” (also known as mounted network “ Volumes“). We have network shares on our computers, want to access company network shares, or have a dedicated file server or NAS ( Network Attached Storage) to store our information or make our backups. We are more network connected than ever before – at home, in school and at work. In this day and age a little weird to still see this, especially from a company like Apple. MacOS is great – I really like it a lot – but one thing it doesn’t handle all that great is … network shares.
