Q: How to setup Wide Area Bonjour across multiple Subnets?
Hi Gents,
It's been painful trying to get this up and i feel i am almost there, but can seem to complete the last bit
I have this network i am helping to manage
OS X Lion Server running
DNS
RADIUS
Open Directory
So the wifi network is in a seperate subsnet from the LAN on which the Mac Server is connected to which posses the problem of Bonjour not routed between the two subnets. So i decided to enable Wide-Area bonjour browsing and create a Service record for afp share folders. So i have got to the point where it's coming up on devices on the seperate subnet under the network icon, however when i try to connect to the service it just says connection failed. Authentication is occuring because if i use wrong credentials it doesn't attempt to connect.
I believe it might be the way i am defining TXT. I have little experience here, any assistance would be appreciated
This is the configruation in DNS Settings on Server Admin
Service Name: Work\03****\03\you
Service Type: _afpovertcp._tcp.
Host: work.damnyou.org.
Port: 548
Priority: 1
Weigth: 0
TXT: "path=PUBLIC/"
Anytime i attempt to connect, it just says Connection Failed
Thanks,
