I must admit I feel like a goose asking this but its eluding me and I figure the quickest fix is to swallow my pride and ask. The scenario. A OS X 10.3.5 machine with access to the 'net (IP address XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX). File sharing setup (SMB activated for the shares), windows services running and FTP services running. Remote Mac's can connect via "Go": "Connect to Server", type in IP address, provide userid and password and boom they are in as if it was on a physical LAN in the next room. But how the @$%#@^%^ do I get a Windoze XP Pro box to do it? Opening a browser page and typing in ftp://XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX fails, Trying to map a drive fails. I've read the Windows Services Configuration doco and didn't see anything pertinent. Somebody out there must have done this successfully before me? -- Regards, Mark (}-: Skype / AIM / iChat: gibsonm1 Intelligence is like underwear, everyone should have it, but we shouldn't show it off. --Gene Petret
