Hi, a strange thing has happened to me lately. Multiple copies of my main computer are showing up on the network. My computer is named Peter's OS X G4 and it appears three times when I go to Go->Connect to Server. They are showing up as xxx.xxx.0.12 (my real IP address) xxx.xxx.0.10 and xxx.xxx.0.2. However when trying to connect to these ghost machines it fails. I can connect to my "real machine" 0.12.
What have I done?
I first turned off AppleTalk (nothing changed)
I then changed my computer name in the sharing preference pain.
Now, there are two Peter's OS X G4's (ghost computers) and my renamed computer which I can connect to.
I turned off File Sharing and all computer dissapeared. When I turned it back on they all appeared again.
I can't figure out what is happening and how I can remove these Ghost computers.
Thanks in advance,
Peter P.
