Choose File > Make Alias or hold down Command and Option while dragging to create an alias.Double-click the volume you want to link to.(If may be stored in your Keychain and the login handled silently.) Enter login information for that Mac if prompted.Just type in your DynDNS domain name and the username and password you use to access your Mac OS X account. Double-click the computer you want to share from. Accessing Your Mac’s FTP Server After you’ve enabled FTP Access and turned on DynDNS, you’ll be able to use any FTP client (like Transmit) to access your Mac’s files and folders.The alias will still try to work if the other computer is sharing via AFP, even if the volume is no longer shared over AFP. When you have a stored alias on one Mac that points to another, and which was a connection originally made over AFP. The only reason this typically matters, however, is on other Macs. Check “Share filse and folders using SMB” if it isn’t selected.
