Standard AFP authentication in Mountain Lion Server taking long time to mount sharepoints
Aloha,
I am the Mac Lab Administrator for Brigham Young University - Hawaii and our Snow Leopard Server was spazzing out so I clean installed Mountain Lion onto the machine (Mac Pro), installed Server.app and setup file sharing. We mainly use the server for file sharing purposes. Anyway, I remember in the Snow Leopard server when I set the AFP access authentication method to "Standard" rather than "Any Method", mounting the shared folder(s) on the client computers was extremely fast. However when I change the AFP access authentication method on Mountain Lion Server to "Standard" via command-line (GUI settings are no longer available), the mounting process still takes 30 seconds to complete on clients. Does anyone know how to fix this? I'd appreciate all the help I can get.
the command I used to change afp settings in ML Server via terminal:
serveradmin settings afp:authenticationMode = standard
Mahalo!
