I removed username and password, then tried reconnecting. Still access denied.

Thanks,

Ok, since file sharing works well on the Icon, I still have something
set up incorrectly.

When I browse for the network folder with the Icon, I see "Dave Hunt's
public folder" as an option.  When I hit "connect", I see the fields
for location, username, and password.  I leave the text in "location"
alone.  In "username", I put the username I use to log into this Mac.
I use the password associated with that username.  When hitting "Ok"
on the Icon, The file explorer is locked until I eventually get a
login error.

On the Mac side, I've given myself read/write permissions on the
shared folder.  File Sharing is the only service turned on.  SMB is
the only protocol turned on.  What else should I be looking at?

Just for completeness, I tried finding my Icon from the Mac side.  On
my desktop, there is an unknown object with text "shared folder"; I
assume that refers to the icon.  I don't know how to interact with
this.  If I do "vo+shft+down", I end up interacting with the text
"shared folder", not the object.


Thanks for your help,



Dave Hunt

Thanks, all, for your comments.  It appears that I have to use the
network file share option.  I'll figure how to do that.
