After 10.5.8 upgrade...

OK, I have a number of shares on my NAS that I have linked in my login items, and when I log into OSX I get these on my desktop. The "server" is "afp://NASNAME (AFP). afpovertcp.tcp.local/SHARENAME"

This has worked great for ages, and all that happened when I logged into OSX was that these shares got an icon on the desktop. However, since the "upgrade" to 10.5.8, these shares open up when I log in. This is so irritating; I do not want these shares to open up, just to have an icon on the desktop.

What's going on? What "feature" did Apple screw around with, and what can I do to get back to status quo?

TIA,

Most folks do sleep. Be patient. While you're being patient do a search in this forum on your issue and/or read the other 10.5.8 topics.

Hi,

I did look around, actually searched the forum for an hour or so, before posting anything. And, I didn't find anything to do with shares opening up on startup, after "upgrading" to 10.5.8.

And, sorry for being impatient!

I have the same with my NAS. In the beginning of Leopard the same thing happened, with the connect to the server a Finder window of the disk would open. But in the last 4-5 version everything went as it was supposed to. And now I end up with all these open windows ;-(. Annoying.

Detail, I connect using a SMB server.

Would appreciate it very much if this is solved in the near future.
