Hello all --

I have scoured the internet and tried everything, but I cannot get Spotlight to Index my hard drives that I have mounted via Airport Extreme. If I can't use spotlight on these, then it seriously undermines the convenience of this feature.

I have done the entire terminal process as documented here : http://forum.multiplexapp.com/comments.php?DiscussionID=17

No results at all, indexing does not 'trigger' via spotlight. Nothing shows up for this drive in a search.

I tried [ about 10 times ] to add the drive to 'private' and remove it, based on the concept that doing so would force the drive to be indexed.

Is this possible? I have to believe that there is some way to make this happen. I would appreciate ANY help on the issue!!

Thanx! MD
