Websharing between Networked computers

We have 2 Macs (g4 and g5) networked by Ethernet connection.
A website is published on the one machine and accessible and fine if I open it via Safari from the machine where the website resides.
Filesharing is on in both machines
Websharing is on in both machines
When I try to access computer A (the one with the resident website) from comuter B via Safari by entering the relevant IP address, I get an unformatted version of the website.
If I type in the IP address and full pathway to the index.html file, I get an error message that I don't have permission to access the file. This also goes for the 'Sites' folder as well.
If I check the 'sites' folder and 'index.html' folder themselves, permissions are read and write.
Am I having a permissions issue, or what seems to be going on? why can I access the user file, but not the next two articles in the heirarchy (sites and index file) if they aren't specifically protected?
Thanks
PS The http port lists as open on computer A

I can't think of ANYTHING in InDesign that would change the font specifications when you move the same file from machine to machine. Style defintions and are file-specific.
Can you show us some screen shots of the style defintion dialogs and some actual text on two different computers where this is happening?
And tell us which version of ID and OS, please.

  • Can no longer share between networked computers

    I recently noticed (possibly just after most recent security upgrade) that I could no longer share files between my wirelessly networked desktop and laptop computers, both running 10.5.8. I have never had a problem before, but suddenly, if I tried to access files from my Intel Macbook using my iMac G5 (PPC), I was told I had insufficient privileges.
    After trouble shooting for awhile and resetting prefs and rebooting, I now find I also no longer have sufficient privileges to access the iMac from the Intel Macbook! So I am stuck.
    I CAN connect one computer to the other and I can share the printer but, although File Sharing is also checked, and both accounts/computers have Read/Write privileges, little "No Entrance" icons are plastered all over my folders and I cannot drop or transfer files let alone open them.
    What is going on suddenly? What can I do to correct this as I really need to share.
    Thank you!
    Both have file Sharing turned on and files and File Sharing and Printer Sharing checked. I CAN share the printer, which

    1) PPC can connect with Intel's Test Public folder only (I created a test document but the Documents folder is not even visible). (Intel's User folder is also not visible.)
    Are you saying that if you log into the 'Intel Test User' account and 'Connect As' a registered user ie. <test> that your username and password are accepted but once you are logged in you cannot see any of the folders?
    In Sharing, file sharing and printing are still checked but the only other option is for DVD/CD sharing - no list of Users who might have access etc.
    Are you saying that in System Preferences/Sharing that services like Screen Sharing, Web Sharing etc are missing and that if you select File Sharing that the Shared Folders and Users panes are empty?
    2) Intel can see PPC HD, but the "Connection Failed". In Sharing, file sharing and printing are checked and you can see Intel's users. The main User for that machine is dimmed and has a No Access icon over it.
    So you can log into the PPC Mac but when you try to access the HD or open a folder it drops the connection, is that right?
    I apologise for all the questions but I am having a little difficulty visualising what is happening here so can't really make any constructive suggestions until I know what we are up against.

  • Slow (stop/start) transfers between networked computers

    When I transfer large files from my 2007 iMac to my networked windows computer the file transfer hangs(doesnt transfer any data) for a few minutes, several times during the transfer. A file that usually takes 30 seconds (on tiger) can take 5 minutes as a result. Can be a real pain.
    This problems occurs via both WIFI and ethernet cable. It doesnt happen all the time but most of the time.
    Any solutions to this?

    I am not having stop/start trouble but file transfers between external FW 400 drives seems a lot slower than in Tiger.

    I need step by step instructions to set up Remote Desktop between 2 computers on 2 different networks. Please dumb it down for me.

    I need to do the same, but with more than one computer behind a dynamic-IP NAT:
    OS X Server A -|
                   |
    OS X Client 1  |- NAT Router Fixed IP ---|
                   |                         |
    OS X Client 2 -|                         |
                                             |
    OS X Client 3 -|                         |
                   |- NAT Router Dynamic IP -| Internet
    OS X Client 4 -|                         |
                                             |
    OS X Client 5 -|                         |
                   |- NAT Router Dynamic IP -|
    OS X Client 6 -|
    I have ARD installed on Client 1 and Client 3 (different locations where I'm at) and I need to manage Client 5 and 6 (and the others, but that amounts to the same problem). Since there are multiple computers behind the NAT, I cannot just patch a port through. I want a secure solution as the traffic goes via the internet.
    I have been thinking about letting the users of Client 5 and 6 set up a VPN link to the NAT Router of Client 1 when they need assistance, but when I want to manage this from Client 3, all traffic goes over two VPNs, let alone if the router at Client 1 can manage this in a stable way.
    Probably, two assignments in the router of client 5 & 6 would be nice, but can I tell ARD to use different ports for certain machines?

  • Ethernet crossover cable to network between two computers

    I have an ethernet cable which i want to use to network between 2 computers. How do I know if it is a so-called "crossover" cable?
    The cable has the following written on along its length:-
    "FTP CAT.5 100MHz 26AWGx4P PATCH TYPE CM (UL) C(UL) CMG E164469 - ISO/IEC 11801 & EN 50173 3P VERIFIED"
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    iMac G4 flat panel 15inch   Mac OS X (10.1.x)   (running OS 10.1.5)

    I'm no expert, but the details you wrote include the words Patch Type." To my limited knowledge, I think that there are two basic types of these cables, "patch type" and "crossover." So I'd guess yours is not a crossover. I've had a hard time finding crossover cables in the past (but have not gone looking for one for some time) and so have simply wired my own. Home Depot or Menards have cable and crimpers, and the instructions are really easy to follow overall.

  • Can i share an iPhoto library between 2 computers ???

    Can i share an iPhoto library between 2 computers, it I store my library on a AS drive connected to an AirPort Extrême Base Station ?

    on a AS drive
    Do you mean NAS drive? No.
    iPhoto needs to have the Library sitting on disk formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Users with the Library sitting on disks otherwise formatted regularly report issues including, but not limited to, importing, saving edits and sharing the photos.
    Will it be wireless? That's good for viewing but...
    A strong warning: If you're trying to edit the Library (that is, make albums, move photos around, keyword, make books or slideshows etc.) or edit individual photos in it via Wireless be very careful. Dropouts are a common fact of wireless networking, and should one occur while the app is writing to the database then your Library will be damaged. Simply, I would not do this with my Libraries.

  • Can I put my library on an external hard drive and use it between two computers?

    Can I put my library on an external hard drive and use it between two computers? I have two MBP; I will refer to one as computer A and to the other as computer B. I would like to be able to plug in my external hard drive, boot up iTunes, and if there were any changes made to the library previous to its last time accessed on this compluter, they show up on that computer, regardless of being imported on the other.
    A hypothetical example: I import three albums called 1, 2, and 3 on computer A over a week or so. I take the external hard drive and plug it into computer B. The entire library which was visible on A, is visible on B, including albums 1, 2, and 3.
    Is this possible? If so, what files need to be copied onto the external? I'm trying some different combinations, trial and error basically. Hopefully someone knows and can answer before I mess up my library. I also want to do this to free up space on my computer. All importing will be done from disc.

    iTunes/Preferences/Advanced : point your iTunes to the new location of the Library.
    Set "Share on local network" in the Sharing tab, and you or everyone on the local network can play your music.
    You make a backup first of the Library.
    Move the follwing to the new location:
    /Users/your username/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music
    have fun.

    sync is about synchronizing network calendars. Simply create a network calendar and synchronize it on multiple machines and forget local calendars.

  • FONT ISSUES! between 2 computers and 1 Mtn file

    This a warning to all Motion 4 users, after troubleshooting for 2 hours between 2 computers (one not opening the file created in the other), it turns out that ONE of the typeface wasn't installed in the other machine, which cause Motion 4 to quit unexpectedly (I though a PNG file I was using was too big...)
    SO if you're trying to open a mtn4 file onto an other machine, and it crashes on you, it could be a font issue!
    Hopefully Apple will have a fix for it, especially after the 10 error reports I sent them
    Cheers everyone!

    If you go into System Preferences > Sharing, there is an option to share your Printer with other computers. I used to do this which allowed other computers to be able to print to my printer while connected to my Mac. However, you need to have the "host" Mac turned on for this to work. So, perhaps this might be a solution?
    My last printer started having problems, so the current printer I have has an Ethernet port on it, so it is connected to the network, so any computer in the house can print to that printer, and I no longer need to have my main computer on so others can print to the printer now.

  • Sync Mail between two computers

    After Leopard upgrade, I switched from Entourage to Mail.app, so I'm new to it.
    I use two Macs and POP accounts. How can I sync Mail.app between two computers in Leopard? The Sync Service of Smart Folders is not enough for me.
    May I use a sync app like Folders Synchrnonizer?
    Thanks
    Stefano

    Both my wife and I have multiple macs and work at home and on the road - we've tried all sorts, and there are 3 approaches that work:
    1) IMAP
    I know you think this isn't the ideal solution for you, but it is unbelievably simple and rock solid once you get it working.
    Set your POP mail addresses to forward all mail to your IMAP address (I use .mac which is brilliant, I don't know about Gmail).
    Your mail is server based, so your laptop, desktop, iPhone, webmail from a PC etc. are all always in sync.
    You will still get your mail from your old accounts.
    You can set rules on any of your machines to filter your mail into folders according to which address they were originally sent to.
    HOWEVER the mail you SEND will be FROM your IMAP address, so your clients / friends may get confused if you don't want them to use your IMAP address as your main address.
    2)
    Leave POP mail on the server.
    In Mail preferences, highlight your POP account and click on the "Advanced" tab.
    Select "Remove mail from server" to a 1 day if you come home each night.
    If you are away for longer, make it 1 week or Never.
    This way, if you download mail on your Laptop, when you get home that evening, your desktop will download the same mail again, as it has been left on the server.
    It's sort of fake IMAP.
    The downside is you can end up with a full mailbox at the server very quickly as you are now leaving messages on it, and you may have to empty the server yourself sometimes (in the same menu you just adjusted).
    Also, if you are away from your laptop too long, you may download and later delete-from-the-server messages on your desktop, leaving your laptop out of date.
    Use Mac Sync to keep your rules, mailboxes and preferences synced up.
    This is the way it's designed to work, so it should work fine.
    3)
    Drag the Mail folder.
    Assuming you're only using one Mac at any one time, you simply move the main mail folder to whichever machine is current.
    Quit Mail on both machines.
    On your target mac, go to youruserfolder/Library and rename the "Mail" folder to something else like "Mail Old". This is just so you have a backup.
    On your source mac, go to youruserfolder/Library and copy that entire folder (not just the mailboxes) either to a drive to transfer to your target mac, or straight to it if you have it networked.
    When you start up mail you will find the messages, folders, mailboxes etc. are the same as they were on your source mac.
    Now you use your target mac (say your laptop) for a while.
    When you are going back to your original source mac (e.g. your desktop), you now repeat the process in the other direction, replacing your desktop's mail folder with your newer laptop's version.
    It's really important you use one mac at a time and swap the folder each time you switch.
    If you rename the previous version before you overwrite it, you know you have a backup if things get out of sync.
    It works really well if you only take the laptop out occassionally, or if you use it exclusively for days at a time (i.e you go away) and you only need to do the transfer every so often.
    Also, it helps if you don't have thousands of emails - if your Mail folder is under half a gig, you can do this quickly using a USB keyring or similar. Any bigger and the transfer can get a bit slow.
    I use option 1, and felt it was worth changing my email address for.
    My wife uses option 2 when she is using her laptop in the day and she can run her desktop each evening the download the mail left on the server.
    But she sometimes gets trouble with her popmail server filling up (she gets lots of video and audio attachments) so if she's going away or not planning to use her desktop in the evenings, she reverts to option 3 and removes messages from the server "right away", updating her desktop's mail folder at the end of the week and just using her laptop until then.
    Good luck!

  • Sharing aperture library between two computers in same house

    How do I go about sharing the same library between two computers in the same house? I would like to take some or all photos around with me on my laptop and be able to have them also at home for use by my family. Will I have trouble with changes and keeping things in sync? Would I locate the library on a portable drive on our home network? Thanks,
    Todd

    cut and dry ???
    are you wanting to constantly move the external around from machine to machine ??? or are you looking for simultaneous access ???
    if you had a library on an external and moved it between computers, it could work ... just be careful to always have the external connected before starting aperture, else it will create a new null library for you ...
    you could have db issues if you tried to have two people access it at once ... i dont believe that the aperture db could handle multi access at once ... not robust enough ... no locking of records, etc ...

    how do I share movies/music between my computers. I have opened shared on both computers and both are on, but i am not able to drag anything from one to the other. Does anyone know where the settings button is on the bottom of the itunes screen?

    Oops, I forgot a step between 7 and 8 ... before syncing the iPhone I need to explicitly send the document back to iTunes on the iPhone, or the changes won't come over at all ...
    and then one more thing ... Numbers on iOS does NOT recognize a number of key features of the OSX app, such as conditional formatting ... so after editing my document on iOS and syncing it back to OSX on my Mac, all of those settings are lost (no more conditional formatting, have to do it all over again)
    What am I doing wrong ?
