Hello guys, Im relatively new mac and networking for that matter!
Im having trouble seeing my mac on my Windows 7 PC, I guess the beginning is a good place to start, so here is what iv done.
On my macbook, iv gone to system preferences/network/airport/advanced/WINS and put in the name of my workgroup "WORKGROUP" and put my gateway ip in for the winservers.
But not seeing the mac on the PC or visa-versa ......have searched the forum and seen this post
But still no luck.......any chance of a little help, as all i want to be able to do is move files back and forth from the Mac to PC, and visa-versa.

I've been struggling all week trying to share a drive out from a mac and mount it remotely onto a windows 7 machine. Also I haven't been able to see any of my macs in the network in windows explorer on the windows 7 machine.
Eventually I found a solution, which I thought others may find useful.
Goto Start Menu
Search for: Local
Hit Enter
Select Local Security Policy
Goto Local Policies> Security Options
Double Click on Network security: LAN Manager Authentication
Change level to: Send LM # LTLM Responses
Then,
Goto Network security: Minimum session security for NTLM SSP
De-select Require 128-bit encryption
Hit OK
But still no luck.......any chance of a little help, as all i want to be able to do is move files back and forth from the Mac to PC, and visa-versa.
