[cite] Maksimum:[/cite]Got some other fix for the different problems (the one with the File Sharing not working on the Hackintoth and the one with not connecting to another file share):

The Rev.2-install has some problems with file paths of some symbol links.

1. open the Terminal
2. 'sudo -s' for becoming root
3. look at /System/Library/Filesystems for the symbol link afpfs.fs. It has to point to '/System/Library/Filesystems/AppleShare/afpfs.kext', mine was showing to 'System/Library/Filesystems/AppleShare/afpfs.kext' (notice the missing slash at the beginning)
4. if it's wrong (without the slash): 'rm afpfs.fs' and then a 'ln -s /System/Library/Filesystems/AppleShare/afpfs.kext afpfs.fs'
5. for fixing the problem of not being able to share something: look in /usr/sbin for AppleFileServer, also a symlink, which on my computer was also missing the slash at the beginning
This has me quite excited as I followed steps 1-4 without problems. I am now able to connect my OSx86 to my iMac to access my files.

However I don't under where I am suppose to symlink AppleFileServer to in step 5? I am still unable to use my iMac to network access my OSx86. Looks like I have half of the problem solved.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?
When I applied steps 1-4 on my OSx86, it fixed my problem right away as I could connect to my Leopard iMac where as before I could not.

However I still cannot connect in the reverse, from my Leopard iMac to my OSx86.

So I was thinking it may be step 5 is where the problem lies.

However I am a newbie so I am not sure how to apply "for fixing the problem of not being able to share something: look in /usr/sbin for AppleFileServer, also a symlink, which on my computer was also missing the slash at the beginning"

before in steps 1-4, he wanted to symlink afpfs.kext to afpfs.ps
where does AppleFileServer symlink to?
or what command do I need to type to fix the / missing before usr/sbin?

I hope this makes it clearer
