Repeated "Connection failure"
I am running Tiger 10.4.11. About two weeks ago, I started getting an alert about every half-hour, saying "Connection failure - The server may not exist or is not operational at this time. Check the server name or IP address and try again." According to the Apple support pages, this happens when running Classic (OS 9) in Tiger and trying to access an AppleShare (AFP) server. But I am not running Classic. Any other ideas what might be happening, or how to diagnose this?

Inappropriate?I've been getting a very similar error, and I upgraded to Leopard. I think it happens whenever I launch Dreamweaver. My hunch is that there are old aliases that don't point to anything anymore; in my case, FTP connections or other network connections that Dreamweaver is trying to access. But, networking is my Achilles' heel, so I could be completely off base. Anyone else get this error?
I’m experiencing something similar

Inappropriate?I have been getting this since I upgraded to Leopard. At the moment, it is doing it every 5 minutes. I have previously set up a connection with my husband's computer, so I will sometimes get this message when I first log on if his machine is turned off. I can't figure out how to tell the machine to not automatically connect. It's really annoying.

Inappropriate?Ironically, since upgrading to Leopard, the problem has gone away for me. I migrated my Tiger system as part of the upgrade, but did NOT migrate my "Sharing preferences" (or something like that) figuring that might be where the problem lay. Anyway, since then, all has been good.
I’m pleasantly surprised
