[QUOTE="stlgasman, post: 796585, member: 84535"] I have purchased an iMac and a powerbook. I also have windows computers on my home network. The windows computers all see each other and the macs. The macs see each other, but unless I specifically look up the IP address of the windows pc (which the router may change from time to time) I can't automatically "see" the windows computers. I see talk about changing the workgroup of the mac to match MSHOME of the windows PCs but in Leopard can't see how to do that. I would like to be able to click on Network and automatically see the windows PC's with their name. I also have an HP Media Vault network storage device that one time mounted automatically with the name Media Vault, but I can only access it via the IP address now. [/QUOTE]
