Hi Guys
Thanks in advance for useful information you can give me. Here it's the situation. I work in a small office where there is a mac server with my account already setup on it.
Until this morning I was able to login in from my mac min regularly using my credential, but suddenly the mac mini stopped to answer and so I need to replace it with a new one.
Now, with this new clean machine, I'm not able anymore to get access to the remote server. When I say get access I mean to remotely login supplying my login details on the welcome screen where you normally (with a clean machine) click on an icon that grant you access with the selected local user.
I come from a Windows world, and my perception is that this mac mini must join to the remote server, like a standard windows workstation should do going into computer properties and changing from a local workgroup to a remote server.
That's what I'm not able to do, and here anybody don't know how to do that.
So I can see my files on the remote server, but I cannot log in and see my desktop running with my stuff as well as mail.app setup with all the previous mail and settings.
I could copy everything locally, but then what? Is it so really complicate?
Please give me an help.
Thanks
Andrea
