[QUOTE="giulio, post: 491826, member: 28677"] First, make sure you are sharing your mac correctly. go into sys prefs > sharing. Turn on windows sharing. Then click Accounts. Make sure your account is enabled: [IMG]http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=6819&d=1190727861[/IMG] Then open Applications > Utilities > Directory Access Click the padlock on the lower left to unlock the tool. Make sure the SMB/CIFS service is enabled. Select it and click Configure. Enter the Workgroup and WINS Server (if you use/know them): [IMG]http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=6820&d=1190727865[/IMG] Give that a shot and report back.
