[QUOTE="beetlejelly, post: 15984"] I’ve been connecting to my Mac from my PC, and it worked great. I reinstalled the operating system on the Mac (10.2.7) and now I can’t connect. I have “windows file sharing” enabled on the Mac, and it says “you can connect to the Mac from your pc by going to \\192.168.0.4\skop” … “skop” is the name of the Mac user. I have a Router and the Mac ip is 192.168.0.4 I can ping the mac and get a response, and the mac can connect to the internet no problem. When I try to connect from the PC I get an authentication box on the pc asking me for my user name and password… BUT when I enter in the user name “skop” and enter the correct password, the user name “skop” changes to “Ezra\skop” (Ezra being the name of my PC) …. As if I where trying to authenticate to a windows network … BUT THIS DIDN”T HAPPEN BEFORE! And I can’t connect …any ideas? [/QUOTE]
