How can I set up an ad-hoc connection from my PowerBook to my Windows laptop? I need to transfer some files and would like to do it wirelessly. I've got an ad-hoc connection named 'temp' set up on the Windows machine, and I'm connected to it with the Mac. I'm also able to access the internet via the wireless connection. But I can't see any files on the Windows, not even the ones that I can see from other Windows computers. What do I need to do?

Thanks,
 
Try turning on Windows File Sharing on your Mac, and see if you can browse the mac drive from the Windows machine.
