Reconnecting a PowerBook to shared disks

Your computer disconnects from any shared disks it’s connected to when you turn it off or restart it. If you have a PowerBook computer, you can reconnect to those shared disks when you turn your computer back on (or wake it from sleep) by using the AutoRemounter control panel.

1.Choose Control Panels from the Apple (K) menu and open the AutoRemounter control panel.

2.If you want to reconnect to shared disks only when you wake the computer from sleep, click the After Sleep button.

If you always want to reconnect (that is, after you restart the computer as well as after sleep), click the Always button.

Click here to reconnect when you wake your computer.

Click here to reconnect when you start up, restart, or wake your computer.

Click here to reconnect without entering passwords.

3.If you do not want to enter your password when you reconnect to shared disks, click “Automatically Remounting.” Otherwise, click “Always Entering Passwords.”

Having your computer ask for your password better protects your privacy and the security of shared disks.

4.Close the AutoRemounter control panel.
