Hello all, I am new here.
I have a burning question about networking this ONE WinXP PC I have...
Actual Problem:
I have a network, 3 XP Machines and one iMAC OSX 10.3.9
From the IMAC, I "can" connect to 2 XP Machines and their printers. The 3rd machine SHOWS UP in the network and printer list on OSX, but the network says "Item could not be found" and the printer says "Cannot use the username and password provided, error 256", no matter what username I use.
Additional Information:
I "assume" I have all the password CORRECTLY set up, because, I can see and print FROM any terminal TO any terminal, EXEPT I cannot see the 3rd PC FROM the iMac. I "can" see the imac from this pc, though.
I can ping the PC from the imac, I can also ping the imac from the pc -- The network Seems OK except its' not apparently ...
All the computers are on the same router, same netmask, same workgroup. They all have the same user-names and the same passwords. They have been restarted many times.
What I want to do:
All I want to do is connect the two shared printers on the 3rd XP machine to my iMAC so I can print !
Conclusion:
The iMAC simply refuses to connect to the 3rd XP machine, even though it SEEs it in the list, and the password IS valid.
ANY IDEAS ??
