Seems like the B2MM functionality may not be ready for primetime. Comments? I tried to get it going today and it seemed on the verge of working, but not.

The first time I tried it, it worked great. It was pretty amazing actually, if a little slow. It's NEVER worked for me ever since. The next three time I tried to use it, it didn't work.

I don't think it's ready for primetime.

Does not work for me -- never saw the second computer show up in the Finder

Had a trusted buddy sign into my .mac account. We were then able to make it work both ways, even with me behind a router. That was several weeks ago, so the "how we did it" is rather fuzzy. Seems to me I had to lower the firewall in the router. Didn't like that aspect, as there is an iMac behind it with XP active.
