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 Macintosh
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.
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.
