Hi
I'm fairly new to Macs and have a question. I have a small home network consisting of amongst other things a number of pc's one Macbook and a Linksys NAS. In the world of Windows I have had the My Documents folder located on the NAS. Each of my pc's has been configured to refer to this networked folder.
I'm in the process of retiring my pc's in favour of more Macs and would like to achieve the same functionality: the user home directory on the NAS and each of the Macs referring to that folder when logging in. I have successfully moved my Mac home folder. However when I start my Macbook it doesn't find the home folder on the NAS because the wireless network doesn't connect until I've actually logged in.
For information I have not configured any kind of network drive mapping other than the NAS being automatically picked up in finder.
I would be grateful for any assistance.
