Here is my issue of the day..

Three Macs in the house:

- G4 PB
- MBP
- MB

USB hd hooked up to my AirPort Extreme....

Upon logon, my external drive mounts to my MB but not my PB or MBP. I find this very annoying and don't know what I missed.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Wow, my very own thread?

Seriously, would love to know how to have the other 2 Macs to automatically log into my external drive.

Thanks.

I would love to help you but since I do not own an AE nor never used one I would be just guessing. Since your Mac Book shows the drive, I wonder why the others don't. Is there a chance that you can only mount the drive on one machine at a time? Just wondering as it makes no sense otherwise. Anyone with an Airport Extreme with a USB external drive and a few Macs out there?

One question though, do all the machines see each other on the network?
