Does anyone have a way to enable or disable filesharing? I tried the script in the toolkit, did not have success.



Thanks

If all you want to do is enable file sharing, shares are already setup, it's fairly simple:



launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.AppleFileServer.plist


If you need to also setup the share points, take a look at the following page. It's fairly old, but it all appears to still apply.

NIce!



I was looking for the GUI visual, but the file sharing checkbox doesn't check unless you reboot.
loading and unloading will turn on and off on the fly.



Thanks Josh
