I do have an account on the other machine and I am running a
firewall. I have personal file sharing turned on and thought this
would have done the trick, but I'll try just browsing and see what
that will do for me.
Thanks for the info.

basic question, but you can never be too sure.
You have to use an existing user-id/pw combination.
Also, if you have a firewall running, it may not allow the fs
packets through.
If it can see the other macs, you may not need to login at all,
simply try browsing them from the finder to see what it shows.
They may already be mounted somewhere, and it's just not showing it.

Folks,
I want to share files between the Macs on my network. I assumed
that personal file sharing would be sufficient if I'm using the
connect to server (command + k) from finder. I can't seem to get
the connection it failes stating that the user name or password
are incorrect, or login disabled. It sees the machine on the
network, but will not connect. I have successfully done this in
the past, but can't for the life of me recall what I've changed if
anything that isnt' allowing it to work. I'm sure its something
really simple, but any suggestions appreciated.
tnx
Scott
