Hi,

On my Macbook, I have renamed the Dropbox folder (inside public) as Macbook Dropbox and shared it (Write only, as dropbox, for ALL).

Same on my Mac Mini: Mini Dropbox is shared with Write for ALL.

It works for the Macbook: From the Mac Mini, without any password, I can click on the Macbook name in a finder window and drop a file in the Dropbox folder of the Macbook.

However, clicking on the name of the Mac Mini in a finder window on the macbook takes a few seconds then the finder window says "Connection Failed".

Firewall is OFF on both machines.

Thanks for any hints or help..
