| Jan 26, 2011 at 12:20 | comment | added | Martin Marconcini | @Ian glad to see if it worked. I find it odd that Finder (using Bonjour) is not finding the other host properly. If you want to do some more investigation, try changing the host name, that would flush it and will broadcast it again through mDNS (bonjour discovery service). Maybe finder will catch it this time. ;) | |
| Jan 26, 2011 at 4:45 | comment | added | Ian C. | This worked. I think the key to success here was using the IP address of the machine. I'd only tried this approach using the hostname, which doesn't seem to be resolving. I guess the Finder approach is using the hostname. Nice catch. Enjoy the points! | |
