Resetting Appleshare client login prefs
Authored by: djdavetrouble on Mar 29, '05 04:02:35PM

you didn't find the .globalpreferences file because it has a '.' leading the filename, which is a hidden unix file. Finder does not show hidden files, and if you are in the terminal you must issue an 'ls -a' command. the -a flag indicates show hidden files ( a stands for all). By the way, just used this hint on a jaguar machine and it worked great. I didn't even have to go to the user's desk, just ssh'd to his machine and vi'd that pref file, then had him log out and back in.
