Is any body aware of how to connect from a MAC using OSX to a Win2k PC with hardrive setup as a NTFS file system.
The Win2k machine has got a printer attached to it HP 2000C, setup as a network printer connect to the network that that is an ethernet and also has a folder setup to share files with other pcs.
I want the Mac to be able to connect to this shared folder and to use the network win2k pcs printer. The PC has the apple talk protocol installed.
When i ping the MACs IP address from the pc cmd prompt it comes up as if the mac is listening.
ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRIATED AS I HAVE NO EXPERIENCE WITH MACS

Samba is an SMB (Windows File Sharing) Server and allows full control of domains, browse lists and browesability via the remote PC's Network Neighborhood.
