Hi Guys,
I have a Macbook running OSX10.4.11.
I am using a simple wired network to share the Internet from my Macbook to a Windows XP Laptop.
In short, the internet comes from Airport, and I share it using the Ethernet port.
And it all works fine!!!!
The thing I am wondering is if it is possible to share files between the two. To access files on the Mac from the XP Laptop, and vice versa?
I have (on the Mac) turned on Personal File Sharing, and have selected File Sharing under the LAN Network settings on the XP laptop.
But, I can't seem to get the two to 'talk' to eachother. The internet still works fine and shares with no issues.
Where is it I need 'to go' on both computers to access eachothers files.
Please can anyone help?
Cheers
Neil
