Thanks for posting the link to a splendid ifconfig program. Sadly, still no "Bonjour" or at least the aspect sought. Another Mac/Hack hooked up to this machine will still "see" this machine, displaying the shared folders in the sidebar of Finder automatically, but that machine's shared files or whatever just don't display in the sidebar of Finder on this machine. Does that function work for you?

I have not yet given up. I've tried enabling "checksum offload" in the 8168/8169 kexts in IONetworkingFamily.kext as some sources suggested that might be the issue, but with no success.

Still have some ideas, and will post if any work out.

Enjoy your "Bonjour" and thanks for sharing your efforts with me.

Machinist,

Please use unpatched everything, just vanilla kext's. Then check by using ifconfig if your network adapter is working in Promisc mode.

You can use Cyberduck's Bonjour tab to check if its working for you or not. This already works for a lot of people, so I don't see the problem in your system.

Could you try that and give me more information?

Cheers!!

Vanilla all, yet the issue persists. With two Hacks linked, the other one shows shares from this machine. When sharing is disabled, the shares disappear from the other machine's Finder Sidebar, but the flip is not happening, except with the RTL1000 kext in place. Ifconfig does not show promisc mode when the R1000 kext is in play.

I have double checked that promisc is enabled, and repeated this procedure a few times. I'm not saying it's not "human error" on my part, just unlikely. Simply put, with R1000 I can see the other Hack's shares, without it, sadly, not.

When you have two machines connected and file sharing enabled, can you see the other machine's shares?

The "promisc fix" made its way to this thread recently:

http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/ind...owtopic=181903

One is enjoying full Bonjour with shares showing, and another has a Snow machine which can "see" but is invisible, precisely the reverse of my situation where my Snow is blind.

These posts are near the end of the thread.

Thought you might find this interesting.

With retail installation and ifconfig promisc enabled, Bonjour is now seemingly fully operational. Pleasantly surprised to both see and be seen by other hacks in this cluster.

I'm happy that finally works for you!
