WHS 2011 connector + Apple Mountain Lion

Question
-
Have installed WHS 2011 on my new server today, and have installed ALL updates from Microsoft (including the latest rollup pack 4). I can browse to the connect page and download the connector software but when I run the install it just bombs out.
I have managed to install the connector on my Win7 VM with no issues at all.
I have tried renaming the Mac Launchpad.app (even though I believe this is no longer required after rollup 4), have tried disabling ipv6 on the server and I have trawled Google with no positive results so far!
Please help! The mac is my primary device and this is what I want to use to maintain the WHS.

Hi Andy,
All the issues listed in these links were resolved in Rollup pack 4 that was released at the end of last year. My problem is that the install bombs before it even starts. I have filmed my experience and uploiaded to youtube >>> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7_EEZabPzU

Hi, I tried again and again, also after upgrading to Mavericks. Finally, after several attempts it worked. I cannot tell you why.Tuesday, October 29, 2013 1:37 PM
