How do I share files between my Mac and the PC? I have tried to share using the IP address of the Mac but the mac does not "see" the pc. They're connected by a shared hub. Do I need bidirectional cable or something else?

I'll give DAVE a try.
I've read the apple article, and thats how I was able to set up an IP transfer from the mac to the PC. I just couldn't get it to work the other way round.
I'll let you know how DAVE works.
Thanks

I just wish there was a cheaper way to do this. Is Tiger better a sharing between a PC?
