Comment 1 for bug 69368

Hi Sam,

I don't own an Apple computer so I had to search the web for possible hints (links below).

The first thing that comes to mind is that the Finder somehow caches the address but one of the GShare features is that it doesn't always use the same IP port, for example the next time you run GShare it may not be listening on port 43818. It seems that it is possible to check the value of the Alias in Finder.

Can you please do that and try to open the URL in that alias to see if that is what's causing this problem? If it is I'll try to fix this problem by forcing GShare to always use the same port, which is something that has already been requested.
