[QUOTE="pwncpa, post: 1349005, member: 231538"] Hi: I am trying to connect my Windows 7 and Mac that are on the same network. On my windws machine, I can see the Mac, but when I double click to access it, I get a window to login: 1. The username I have set up on my Mac is Joe 2. Under file sharing on the mac, I have given Joe read & write access 2. On my windws 7 machine, when trying to login to access the mac, I have used "joe" and the same password as the user account on the mac, which is the exact same name and password on my windows machine. On the windows machine, it converts the name to: windowsmachinename\joe. I have also entered macmachinename\joe. Each time I try to login, in either direction, I get the message that I have supplied an invalid user name or password. Any ideas? Thanks! [/QUOTE]
