McKrout Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 Ok, so i have panther running and its running well, but it doesnt see the windows box. it sees it for routing purposes, but they dont see each other in a network access sense. so my question is this, i know how to change work groups in XP, but how do i tell panther which work group it should use?? thanks in advance.

MipScript Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 It will see all the workgroups available and you can pick which one for it to look into to via Finder -> Network. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aristotle-dude Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 Yeah, you should see all of the workgroups. I took my pbook to work to transfer my iTunes library to my work PC. I was browsing the domain tree and i connected to a share as an authenticated domain user on my workstation. That was even without binding to active directory through the Directory Access tool (in /Applications/Utilities/). You should at a minimum have SMB and rendezvous turned on/checked in there. You might have to log out and back in to see the network. On the PC, you have to have a share enabled to appear in the workgroup. Also, be sure that you have 10.3.4 installed as it improves network browsing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McKrout Posted June 2, 2004 Author Share Posted June 2, 2004 Thanks for the tips guys. i will make sure that SMB and Rendezvous are turned on, as i know they are not on currently, at least i know rendezvous isnt. thanks again. TS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
