@pp:

Could you have a look at the console log (Applications -> Utilities -> Console). Anything in there that could explain what is going on?

Also: what happens if you try to mount the same user/domain a second time?

Just gave this a try on my MBP (10.5.6) but the mounting icons don’t pop up. The mounting seems to working fine though since Little Snitch is detecting the connections.

@hammer/@Ed:

Thanks for your bug reports. I’ve gotten some per mail as well. Ed: your diagnosis is correct.
Fortunately this should not be too hard to fix. I’ll try and get a new version out this weekend.

@Steve:

It is similar, but using Apple + K you cannot mount drives over SFTP, like with DreamMount. You could use FTP, which dreamhost also supports (not dreammount), but according to the help text this will be read-only then.

@Christian:

I’ll have a look at it this weekend. Did you uninstall 2.1.5 first btw?

Hi, firstly great program.

Second, a bug report: I got a time out error and looking through the error message (superbly detailed btw.), it looks like it was caused by the machine I was on not having stored the SHH fingerprint of the ftp server. so the system was asking for confirmation of whether to proceed. Connecting with another program will cause this message to be shown in a dialouge after which it isn’t a problem. but better handling would be a bonus.

Hey There,

Just curious about how this is any different than using Apple + K to mount your file system with Apples built in networking?

Thanks!

Steve

tried to install the version of MacFUSE that comes with DreamMount. Even though the installer told me it would install an older version than what I have DreamMount gave me the same error message.

I love the idea but I’m getting a timeout error when trying to mount. Any ideas?

I have MacFUSE v.2.1.5 (it is a beta version) and DreamMount gave me this error message:

“MacFUSE Runtime Version Mismatch

The MacFUSE library version this program is using is incompatible with the loaded MacFUSE kernal extension”

Is the new 2.1.5 beta kernel incompatible or is it just a version issue? Trying a MacFUSE downgrade.

I’m not a mac user but your application is definitely cool!
