It represents network services that aren't available to you.Īnyway, the important point is how to fix it from another user: >When I click on the Network icon in the Sidebar the window shows 'Servers' and an alias called Library. You can use this capability to customize your managed client environment.' Mac OS X accesses the network Library folder before the local Library folder, so network resources with the same name take precedence. These resources could include fonts, application preferences, ColorSync profiles, desktop pictures, and so forth. This gives you the ability to make available, from the network, any type of system resource that resides in the local Library folder. This Library folder in the Network globe is included in the system search path. 'Adding System Resources to the Network Library Folder You would only use this folder if you part of a network being managed with OS X Server.įrom Mac OS X Server Administrator’s Guide: A user on the above forum wrote: The network Library contains items that are available to all users on your network. Apparently it has something to do with NFS. Specifically, a new generic file alias shows up in under Network in the Finder. Many of you in Tiger may have noticed the problem discussed here. No need for any login-items or apple-scripts or any automounter-programs. No error-messages, if you are out of your LAN. The share created by fstab will always be automounted.

After that you won`t see the share in Finder, but its mounted! Open a Finder-window and look into the sidebar under shares/all. The format is: myserver:/path mount_point url 0 0 You can then restart or use `sudo automount -vc` in a terminal window. You have to identify as admin for this task.

Now save the newly created fstab-file in /etc/. 192.168.0.1 is the LAN-Address of your NAS-Server and /Network/Qnap is the mount_point. The format for the fstab-entry is as follows: myserver:/path mount_point url 0 0 This means for example: 192.168.0.1:/Qnap /Network/Qnap url 0 0 where i.e. Let`s say, the qnap-share you want to mount calls `Qnap` and is of type smb. But there is another opportunity to mount a share very elegant: use the autofs-capabilities of Leopard! it`s easy: First you have to create a file called `fstab` in /etc/. Ok, in my opinion, you can`t suppress the `opening window after mount`, when mounting the share via login items. Any idea how can I suppress the opening folders as I need to close them manually one by one every time. However, all folders are opened even I have checked the 'hide' option of the 'Login Items'. I did the same and the folders can be mounted automatically after my login. There's an much easier way - mount your disk (SMB, AFP, whatever you like), then go to System Preferences, Accounts, make sure your own account is selected on the left, select 'Login Items' and click the little '+' button.
