Mount AFP volume error [-5002 (AFP Bad UAM)]

After reading many complaints about AFP in Leopard, I just have to ask again if anybody has a workaround for the “Connection Failed” error -5002 when trying to mount an AFP volume in Leopard. Does anybody have any more info about fixes, workarounds or info about this problem with Leopard? And what is UAM??

UAM == user authentication method
Each AFP server, depending on its version, will have a set of UAMs that it supports by default. These are essentially authentication capabilities such as "no authentication", "cleartext passwords", "kerberos auth", etc. There are several others.
That error code would imply that your client is trying to authentication in a way that the server doesn't know how to handle. Is this another Leopard box you are trying to mount?

  • No longer mount NFS volumes with 2010.q1 release:

    Has anyone else seen this? I can no longer mount any of my NFS volumes with root squash since upgrading to 2010.q1. I have a ticket open with Sun (72644622), but everyone is apparently off/away.
    Before they all went off, Sun Eng. suggested setting max supported NFS version to 3, but this of course did not work. Hosts trying to mount the volumes error out with:
    call_verify: server HOST_IP_HERE requires stronger authentication.
    I have double checked that the atuh is set to sys (not krb), but it looks like the nfsd is not respecting this.
    Of course this has knocked all our VMware mounts offline as well, and using krb for these is out of the question....
    Had to update to support the new FC card...which works great...but me needs me nfs shares....
    Fishworks doods, stop yelling at drives and help a brother out ;)

    I wish I could tell you, but it seems we lost a CIM card. Worse yet, this failure was completely SILENT. Not a single "problem" listed in the logs. However, when attaching another J4400, I noticed an alarm LED on the failed CIM and verified that the storage was only seen by 1 path. Kind of disconcerting that availability could be reduced significantly without so much as an email.
    I'll let you know if we can get to the new release later this week.

  • Backup Controller cannot mount XSAN Volume

    Hi Guys,
    I've really have a big problem regarding the XSAN that I've just setup: There are 3 Xserves connected to the SAN - one for the main controller, one for backup and another one for fileserver. After a fresh install of the Leopard Server 10.5.6 on all servers and fresh install of Xsan 2.0 updated to 2.1.1, I tried creating an SAN from the main controller, I added first the main and backup controllers, authenticated them properly and was successful adding them to the SAN. After this, I created the volume and it mounted properly on the main controller. What I don't understand is that whenever I try to mount the volume to the backup controller, it is saying unable to mount and even I tried forcing it to mount in terminal using the command xsanctl mount VOLNAME, its giving me an error saying
    "unable to mount volume, Cannot mount XSAN volume error code: 5"
    What is that error message? When I tried typing cvadmin to the main controller, it only gave me this message:
    Main Controller:
    File System Services (* indicates service is in control of FS)
    1>*XSAN[0] located on 10.0.0.101:49930 (pid 317)
    Select FSM "XSAN"
    When I type the same cvadmin to the backup controller, it gave me this message:
    Backup Controller:
    File System Service (* indicates service is in control of FS)
    1> XSAN[1] located on 10.0.0.102:50384 (pid 331)
    No FSSs are active
    Select FSM "none"
    What is happening? both servers are having a DNS name. Before I created the SAN, from the authenticate window, the server name is just the IP address of the Ethernet 0 (first ethernet port). Now whenever I fire up Xsan Admin, both controllers are now offline and if you authenticate them, the server name info suddenly changed from IP address to a DNS Name (e.g. from 194.170.34.12, changed to hct-mdc.ad.hct.ac.ae) which even if I type my admin username and password cannot authenticate saying "server not found in network"
    I really don't know now what to do and they need to fix the issue asap.
    I would really appreciate your help guys!
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    I am accessing this WS via ARD, so public LAN is definitely there. I have not connected the "Xsan" network (but it should be no problems communicating the Xsan traffic over this single LAN connection).
    With the firewall, the situation is more strange. When I try to open the Firewall settings on Sharing, there is a dialog "Other firewall software is running on this computer." I googled this and it seems that this was a common problem on 10.3. They suggest to delete com.apple.sharing.firewall.plist file but it is not there on 10.4.
    "sudo ipfw list" shows this:
    00001 allow udp from any 626 to any dst-port 626
    65535 allow ip from any to any
    Any ideas on how to make Firewall behave as expected? I will try to reinstall if I don't receive a reply.
    Thanks.

  • Share a mounted AFP volume across user accounts on the same computer

    Hi all,
    I have a Mac Mini with several attached disks (HFS+). I'm using it as a file server, to share these disks over my home network. I'm mounting these as AFP server volumes on a second computer (MacBook Pro). This all works fine. Both are running MacOS 10.6.2.
    The problem is that my MacBook Pro has two user accounts, and when I mount AFP volumes under one user, the other user can't access them. It seems that mounted AFP volumes are assigned read/write permissions for only the user that mounted them.
    Ideally, I'd like to mount a volume once, and have it accessible from both user accounts. I've tried changing permissions in the AFP volume's Get Info window, but the changes don't take effect.
    Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks!!

  • Blue screen after Error 37: a bad filename or volume was encountered

    I get a PAGEFAULT_IN_NONPAGEDAREA blue screen after I encounter multiple Error 37: a bad filename or volume was encountered.
    Anyone encounter this issue and how to you send info to apple for them to fix their buggy code?
    Their support of code which will run bug-free on vista seems to be lacking (I understand there are two parties to this marriage).
    Help anyone?

    I noticed a few days ago that (at least on my box) Quicktime seems to have "issues" with >31 characters anywhere in the file path.
    Is it possible that you have some folder along the way to your movie that has more than 31 charaters?
    Shorten if necessary and see if that works.

  • Group Preferences mounting AFP, but not starting apps at login

    I need a little help on this one please. Thanks in advance for any advice.
    I have OD working. In Workgroup Manage I am trying to mount a shared volume and start 3 applications for a group of users. I have added all these under the Login preference for the group. When a user logs in, they get the share-point, but the apps do not start. I can add the apps to the computers (bound computers in WM) and the apps will start, but I was wanting to do this for a group of users, not a group of computers. Can someone help me figure out what I am doing wrong?
    I also tried to add the share-point to the Dock preferences hoping to see the mounted volume in the Dock, but that is not working either. Is there a trick to do this?
    Thanks again for any help.

    OK, that was helpful. Thanks. The script is something I picked up somewhere:
    tell application "Finder"
    try
    activate (mount volume "smb:<username>:<password>@//pele/peter")
    on error
    display dialog "There was an error mounting the Volume." & return & return & ¬

  • Auto_master, mounting afp shares without username/password in plain text?

    Hi,
    i'm trying to mount afp-shares from a Synology Diskststation and an Airport Time Capsule via the automountd.
    I've modified the /etc/auto_master as follows:
    # Automounter master map
    +auto_master            # Use directory service
    /net                    -hosts          -nobrowse,hidefromfinder,nosuid
    /home                   auto_home       -nobrowse,hidefromfinder
    /Network/Servers        -fstab
    /-                      -static
    /Synology               /etc/auto_afp   -nosuid
    I've created the /etc/auto_afp:
    iTunes -fstype=afp afp://"Username":"Password"@DiskStation.local/iTunes
    Data -fstype=afp afp://"Username":"Password"@AirPort.local/Data
    Providing Username and Password works fine, but is there a way to make this work without the Username and Password in plain text?
    Thank you.

    An applescript application set as a user login item should be a better choice.
    I'm just about to work this out for an SMB mount of a users Windows home (augmented AFP homes are breaking preventing the 'Mount UNC path' option in the AD plugin).
    Post back if you still want info.

  • When I try to print my book I receive the following error message:  One or more of the images in your book are not presently available at full resolution. Please reconnect to these files by mounting the volume(s) containing the original images.

    When I try to print my book, I receive the following error message:  One or more of the images in your book are not presently available at full resolution. Please reconnect to these files by mounting the volume(s) containing the original images.  I don't understand what this means since all the photos are in the book.  Can someone please clarify?

    When you look at the images in the browser, do you see any arrow icons on your thumbnails? Like these:
    When you import your images from a folder on your system drive, you have two ways to import:
    Managed: Import and store the images in the library
    Or referenced: Leave the images in the folder outside the Aperture library.
    This is controlled by the "Store Files" settings in the Import panel:
    If you did not set "Store files" to "In the Aperture Library", the originals will stay in the folder outside.
    The error message you get, suggests that Aperture assumes the original files are in a folder outside the library.
    Select one of your images in the Browser and use the command "File > Show in Finder" - is this command available or dimmed out?

  • Error Mounting ACFS volume onto another ACFS Volume

    We have Oracle 11gr2 running on a two node cluster with OS of Solaris 10.
    I have setup a few ACFS mounts that work great between the nodes, but I need to mount a ACFS volume onto another ACFS mounted filesystem. Can that be done?
    Example:
    First ACFS Mount - /opt/test
    Second ACFS Mount - /opt/test/samba
    I'm using the following commands:
    # /sbin/mount -F acfs /dev/asm/opttest-121 /opt/test
    # /sbin/mount -F acfs /dev/asm/optsamba-356 /opt/test/samba
    mount: CLSU-00100: Operating System function: mount (/dev/asm/optsamba-356) failed with error data: 16
    mount: CLSU-00101: Operating System error message: Device busy
    mount: CLSU-00103: error location: SM_0
    mount: ACFS-02110: Unable to mount /dev/asm/optsamba-356 on /opt/test/samba.
    If I mount the /dev/asm/optsamba-356 volume to /opt/samba it works. In this case /opt is a directory off of / (root).
    Thanks.
    Brian

    Hi Brian,
    can't you simply mount it elsewhere and create a symbolic link?
    Even if this would work, I have some doubts about it, since there is no internal mount order for the ACFS filesystems.
    So what would happen if /opt/test/samba would be mounted before /opt/test?

  • Can't get around "mount failed" - "on error" won't do it - help appreciated

    Hi
    I'm using this syntax to mount a volume, and it works well if the volume can in fact be mounted:
    try
    mount volume "afp://username:[email protected]/MyDir"
    on error
    display dialog "blah blah"
    end try
    BUT, if the volume can't be mounted because the directory specified is incorrect, I a dialog saying "Mount Failed" opens with the only option being 'OK'. Under some other mount failure circumstances this dialog doesn't appear, and the script does eventually time out and disappear all by itself. But if this dialog appears, I have no option other than to manually press OK. It stays open forever. This dialog appears before the script passes the error to the display dialog part, so it prevents the "on error" part of the script from running. This is the only example I know of where 'on error' fails to let the scripter move on and manage the error.
    What I would really like to do is to get the 'on error' functionality to actually work properly, because I can determine the PID of the process using Terminal and could then kill it using a shell script if , BUT none of this is possible because the script never gets to the 'on error' state because a real human must press the dialog's OK. I can't seem to use system events to send anything to it because the whole applescript just hangs at this point until the OK is checked.
    Does anyone know a workaround? I've tried using a with timeout step around the whole thing but also won't work.
    Thanks for any advice you could give me.
    Chris.

    I'm having the same trouble, but for different reasons. I was trying to determine a method for examining all the mounted volumes on my desktop and then detecting which mounted volume came from which network server. There doesn't seem to be any way to determine this via any filesystem metadata or anything. The only solution that I could think of was to build an afp url for each server/volume combination for any given mounted volume I wanted to test and then try mount volume on each url (thinking that the on error handler would trap the errors and then I could branch accordingly). Doesn't work. It's interesting that if you try mount volume afp://validerserver/badvolume, you get the mount failed error before your on error handler kicks in. If you try mount volume afp://badserver/validvolume, the on error handler fields the resulting -35 error. If you try mount volume afp://emptystring, you get a connection failed dialog before the on error handler again. Really annoying.
    I filed a bug on this.

  • Auto-mounting AFS volumes

    I've read there are two 'ways' of doing it, 'dynamically', and 'statically'. Which way do I want to do it, the following, and how do I do it, exacly?
    I've got GNU Linux servers tarfu, snafu and fubar. Each server is sharing at least 1 volume via netatalk. I have had to mount these volumes after I login since I set up the system about a year ago. I noticed that the "connect at startup" (or whatever it was called) checkbox present from OS ~ through OS 9 was missing, and figured, "oh well. I'll live without it", well, Now I am done living without it.
    I want to mount shares at a) boot time or b) login time.
    How?
    I have scoured google for decent instructions, but all I came up with was this: http://www.bombich.com/mactips/automount.html
    Not very helpful. There are no Auth options, which I require, and the instructions just aren't written very well.
    Does anyone have any instructions, a blow-by-blow document telling me just how to do what I want to do?

    What about applescript ??
    I set up an applescript for a client yesterday, that i made into an application... which i told to load on login... would that help ??

  • MCX Login Items: Mounting Server Volumes

    I noticed that when you set up a policy for a user,group or computer to mount a remote volue at login, you will get a Finder error if the volume can't be mounted for some reason (i.e.; the server is down, the volume is not available etc. This can be handy for troubleshooting.
    Is there a way to surpress the error, so my mobile users dont get an error when the remote volumes are unavailable?
    Example: A lot of my Mac users will have laptops, and thus sometimes they will be away from our LAN. I want they to still be bound to OD and have cached MCX settings when they are on the road. However, I dont want the users to get "Volume could not be found" errors.
    Message was edited by: Daniel Stranathan

    I think you should be able to use AppleScript to mount the volume, put that code inside a "try" construct, and leave the "on error" blank. Like this:
    try
    tell "Finder"
    mount volume "afp://[user]:[passwd]@[server hostname or IP]:/[sharepoint]"
    end tell
    on error
    -- do nothing
    end try
    I haven't tried this, but thought it might work.

  • A better way to make Automator mount a volume?

    I made an Automator application, using the Record function, to mount a volume on a drive connected to my Mini. I also made a similar one to eject it. I use them as Calendar-triggered events as part of my backup scheme.
    They work well ... until I restart the Mini, when occasionally my two connected drives will mount in a different order. What happens then is that the sequence of mouse clicks recorded in Automator don’t find the correct volume.
    I wonder if there’s a better way to automate the mounting of a currently ejected disc (and later its ejection). Automator, as far as I can see, does not have the actions I need. It has Ask For/Connect to/Get specified Servers, but they seem only to be for network-connected stuff.
    Anyone know a better way?

    Welcome to Unix. 
    The key part of that shell script code is the test for the existence of the mount point (if [ -e /Volumes/dbamp ]), followed by a conditional block that — in the "else" section involved when the mount point wasn't found — creates it, and then mounts an AFP file system on that mount point.  Most of the rest of the baggage in that script is used to get the mysqldump database dumps over onto the target disk, once it's been mounted.
    Here's a very quick overview of the basics of scripting , Apple's introduction to the command line manual, there's a generic bash intro (which is good, but doesn't line up exactly with how bash is implemented on OS X) and O'Reilly has some reasonable books on bash and bash scripting.  Once you know and are comfortable with the basics, there are advanced bash guides available.

  • Mounting Server Volumes Via Startup Items

    I'm going crazy here trying to figure out what's going on with my wireless AirPort network!!!
    While trying to set up the first G4 iBook (10.4.2) from an Apple wireless cart I've discovered that I can't get a server volume to automatically mount at startup. I'm connecting to an AirPort Extreme base station. The iBook has no problem detecting and connecting to the base station and allowing an Internet connection and you can manually connect to a file server. But if I add a server volume to the Startup Items I can't get it to mount the volume at startup.
    Here's some stuff I've done to try to isolate the problem but nothing seems to point to a solution:
    - If I connect via Ethernet, it works everytime - so the issue is definately AirPort related.
    - Since I have 3 other independent AirPort networks (Extreme & Dual Ethernet) I tried connecting to them - no help.
    - After startup is finished I can connect manually (Go/Connect to Server).
    - Here's a real stumper... If I log out (not a reboot) & log back in - the volumes mount!!!
    - Up until now I had my personal eMac (10.3.9) connecting and mounting the same volumes via one of my previously mentioned AirPort networks with no problems. In trying to solve this problem I cleared out my Startup Items, Keychains, etc. - now I can't get it to work either.
    - I tried setting a new user in case it was some fouled up user setting - no help.
    - I've cleared out and set up Keychains & Startup Items numerous times - no help.
    - I disabled security - no help.
    So in my opinion I've ruled out the following by process of elimination:
    - System hardware - problem exists with eMac & iBook
    - OS - problem exists with 10.3.9 & 10.4.2
    - Base station - problem exists across differing base stations (Extreme & Dual Ethernet) & differing networks
    - Users - problem exists with new user
    - Security - problem exists with security disabled
    Here's the one thing that seems evident....
    The connection to any Airport network takes a momentary delay during startup - enough to cause to Startup Items (server volumes) not to mount. Since I can connect to the server manually shows that the AirPort connection is good. Logging out & then back in uses an AirPort connection that is already established and then will mount the Startup Items (server volumes).
    I've seen some Internet posts that suggest using scripts to somehow delay certain Startup Items from executing until an AirPort connection is established - I would rather avoid that mess. There's got to be a better solution! This seems to me like a very basic function that shouldn't take scripts or other such voodoo!
    I'm all out of ideas.....
    Dave

    Hi Dave,
    I recently had the same problem. I think a recent update messed up the way I was using applescript to mount drives. I would get messages while the script ran that would indicate things timing out while looking for drives. After reading through a lot of forums I found that this script worked for me:
    tell application "Finder"
         mount volume "afp://user:[email protected]/VolumeName"
    end tell
    This is for mounting a Mac server volume. I think you use smb:// for a win server.
    Let me know if this works for you.

  • Mount network volume: different users same credentials, see different shares

    A set of network volumes on a NAS need to periodically be backed up to a local USB disk. Manually, I can mount most shares (from a Finder window). In a shell script I can list all files due (find) and use that list for backing up to a local USB volume (cpio). So far so good. However, I need to mount these network volumes first. The mount command doesn't seem to work for me.
    How do I mount a network volume in a shell script?
    Also I noticed that if under fast user switching user A logs in with credentials uName and uPassword, the NAS shows 6 shares to choose from. When user B on the same machine logs in with the same credentials uName and uPassword, only 5 shares are visible and one is not shown. It looks as if the credentials do not uniquely determine the volumes offered for mounting. Also, when user B mounts a share, it appears to be owned by user A (who is logged in but has not mounted any share on the NAS) rather than owned by B or by uName...
    How do I mount this volume as user uName rather than A or B?
    How can one uniquely determine the identity of the volume? Network volumes don't show UUIDs and the name given in the /Volume/ folder can change, as is discussed in message 11871367.

    eljonco wrote:
    I just checked: after a reboot, user A logs in (automatic login enabled), user A logs out, user B logs in, ls -a /Volumes only shows local HD and a USB HD. No network mounts there.
    In the finder window, the NAS shows up on the left. Clicking it and entering credentials uName, uPassword, a list of five, not 6, items is offered for mounting. So your options 1 and 4 are then ruled out, unless an alias made by user A and copied to user B's home folder would still link to user A's mounting options.
    Actually, only option 1 is ruled out. That Finder list is simply not reliable. It is likely cached somewhere and could be restored by deleting some hidden preference file. It regularly causes people to freak out when they see some sharepoint listed on a network that they have long since left.
    If you did Go > Connect to Server in the Finder and typed in the location, you could still create an alias.
    Once mounted one of 5 shares as uName with uPassword, an ls -al /Volumes shows the local drives and
    drwx------@ 11 B staff <date> sharename
    and all folders in sharename also show B:staff as user:group. I find that strange, as I did not log in to the share with credentials B, but with credentials uName. Anyhow.
    The uName user is for the network share. When MacOS X mounts that, it gives it permissions appropriate for the user who did the mounting. If you did an NFS mount as root, the server would handle permissions via UNIX uid and gid. I'm really not familiar with the details of AFP.
    As I read in a post about autoFS that 'cd /Volume/theHiddenShare' should magically mount that share, I gave it a shot. Alas, '/Volumes/theHiddenShare: No such file or directory'. Same long shot in the dark in the 'Go/Connect to' dialog gave 'The folder cannot be found'. Not surprisingly, I suppose.
    Yes. That has to be setup
    Here is what I've done to my /etc/auto_home:
    # Automounter map for /home
    #+auto_home     # Use directory service
    # Get /home records synthesized from user records
    #+/usr/libexec/od_user_homes
    myserver.org -allow_other,reconnect,fstype=sshfs [email protected]:/home/me_remote
    I'm not on a big network, so I've disabled the system functionality by commenting out "+auto_home" and "+/usr/libexec/od_user_homes". Now, the system doesn't manage /home and I am free to do with it what I want. This will mount the path "/home/myserver.org" connected to the "me_remote" user on "myserver.org". I'm using the funky MacFUSE sshfs filesystem. Your AFP file system should work much better. Your line would look something like this:
    drive5 -fstype=afp uUser@MyLocalServer:/theHiddenShare
    Run "automount -vc" to reset your automount system.
    Next use Finder Go > Connect to Server and type in "afp://uUser@MyLocalServer:/theHiddenShare".
    You want to mount the drive once so that you can store uPassword in your keychain.
    Now unmount the drive.
    The Finder mounts all go into /Volumes and, as you have discovered, can get themselves confused. This automount will be at "/home/drive5". All you have to do is enter that folder in the Finder and it will be automatically mounted. If you haven't used it for a while, it will be unmounted automatically.
    You may have to play around with this a little. I don't have any network AFP share that I need to mount on a regular basis, so those parameters may need to be adjusted somewhat.
