"Invisible" is probably the wrong word. It still appears in the Shared
section of a Finder window's sidebar on the other machine, but
clicking it
there causes the window to get stuck forever in the "Connecting..."
mode.
Running an AppleScript to mount it does not generate an error, but it
doesn't mount the volume, either, and the script has to be force quit.
By "invisible on network" do you specifically mean that AFP file
sharing doesn't work (that is, other network protocols can see the
machine, like ping, iPhoto Photo Sharing, iTunes music sharing,
Bonjour-based iChat, etc.)?
I have noticed a number of syndromes with Leopard-to-Leopard machines
not holding up to sharing, but not associated with Xcode. Two things
to check:
1) Is your AFP mount using IPv4 or IPv6? I noticed in one particular
configuration that Leopard file sharing client will use an ipv6
address if available, but the connection seems more dicely.
2) Are you specifically using AFP and not SMB? In Leopard the two seem
conflated (that is, you'll see MyServer [afp] and My-Server [SMB] in
the Shared group). I would recommend disabling SMB and just using AFP.
There's a good intro to all this at http://db.tidbits.com/article/9261
In short, yes, I've seen such problems, but only on my home network
(where neither my media server nor my wife and kids' machines use
Xcode), but I don't see it at work where all the machines are running
Xcode a lot.
