Hopefully, this is a realy easy one.
Got my PC and iMac connected via my Router, and from either machine, I can see both machines.
From the iMac, I can access the shared folders on my PC. (It just works!)
However, when I try to view the shared folders on my iMac from my PC, I get a popup box asking for Username/Pasword.
No matter what I try, I can't seem to get the right names to let me into the iMac.
I'm no networking expert, but I'm assuming I need to put into these boxes (on my windows PC) and names/passwords that I use on the iMac.
I've tried the only ones I use and still it won't let me into the iMac, just says I'm using the wrong details.
Now, to be honest, this is at home, and I don't want ANY security at all.
Can anyone point me to where I can view (on the iMac) the details I need to type into the PC when asked, or where on the iMac, I can tell it to turn OFF the security for file sharing?
I'm using OS X 10.4 Tiger.
Many thanks.
