how to get a Mac to
appear as a shared volume on the PC under OSX.2.4, I'd be glad to hear of
it.
AFAIK, easy as:
Mac->System Prefs->Sharing. Turn on Windows File Sharing
Windows (XP)->Add Network Place->\\ip_address_of_mac\username
So to access the the folders for a user 'petem' on a mac at 192.168.0.100, use
\\192.168.0.100\petem
And login with normal username and password.
As for:
And doubly glad to learn of any way for a Mac to access a shared Windows
(non-postscript) printer....
I've got Windows printing to a shared USB inkjet (Canon S750) attached to a Mac, but not the other way. Guess that's because I do most of my printing from the Mac, so it made sense to have that as the 'master'. If you want details on how to do that, let me know.
