by Greg Mueller, Jan 08, 2010 5:00pm PSTHere's a fresh chatty for you all to enjoy on this Friday night. We've had our ups and we've had our downs, but it's been a pretty good first week to start off the new year. It will no doubt be remembered as vividly and with the same fondness as all the other first-weeks-of-the-year past. That is, not much at all.
The weekend is almost upon us. May yours be as fun and exciting as an endless stream of sharp news, snappy headlines, and witty comments from Faylor, Alice, Garnett, Jeff, and the rest of the Shack.
In case you missed it, here's a taste of all the fun and excitement we had today:
Yesterday I was at a friends house, he has a new shiny MacBook Pro runninng 10.6.2 - that's Snow Leopard right?
Anyway, I couldn't access other computers (running XP) that are on the same network. I want to get into their shared folders.
So I went to Sys Prefs, Networking, and filled the workgroup field on WINS tab.
Then I wanted to check the "Directory Acess" app under Utilities (this needs to be configured afaik) but I can't find it! Why it isn't there I have no idea :(

One is to connect manually, in Finder you do this by using the Go menu: Go -> Connect to Server..
When the box appears you can choose "Browse" or better yet enter manually the address of the server.. Like this: smb://192.168.1.1 (or whatever ip)
The other is to just have Windows File Sharing (under Sharing in preferences) turned on, which will let the Windows computers access the Mac. (obviously this is not going to help access the other way around).
