Tricks to getting a small mac only network without DNS server to work
Graphisoft is working on a solution to provide easier TeamWork setup for Mac only networks.
On the Server: Add in BIM Server Preferences under Advanced Settings/Internet Address the name of the computer hosting the Bim Server. Include the “.local”. Something like this: “Ed-Browns-MacBook-Pro.local”
On the client:
- Close any instances of ArchiCAD running
- Remove [user home]/Library/Preferences/Graphisoft/TeamworkInfo_v2.xml
- Remove [user home]/Library/Application support/Graphisoft/Connectioninfo/14.0.0/connections.xml
- Flush DNS cache: open terminal and give the following command: dscacheutil -flushcache
- Launch ArchiCAD
Open join dialog
Add BIM Server Name – Including the “.local” ending
Enter a valid user and password
It will return with an invalid User
- Close ArchiCAD
- Launch ArchiCAD
Open join dialog
Select the Bim Server that now is in the pull down list
Enter the same valid user and password
