I'm sure you guys get a million of these a day, but I thought why not get some help from the experienced?
So, here's the set-up: I have two computers, both linked through a DSL router. The router is a D-Link DSL-504 router and splits the DSL to both the computers. They are both in their via Ethernets. The two computers: One, (my favoriate) is an iBook 900 Mhrz model running X 10.2.6, and the other, is a brand name TINY PC w/ a p3 (blech) and windows XP Pro (i Think, i know it's XP at least). Ofcourse the PC can't live up to the mac.
I can't for the life of me figure out how to share files between these two computers. The printer I have is a serial printer and works well with the PC, and I have drivers for the mac but don't know how to share the printer through the router. I also need to share files, as I said, and would also love to get my own minny LAN party going so I can play games against my family.
Ok, as I checked to be sure I was still in the same spot, something new came up when using the connect to server command (cmd + k). I got a list of workgroups and found the PC and connected, so I got the file sharing down.
But I still don't know how to share the printer, or game between computers. If any of you are familiar w/ the specific game is Age of Empires which my son loves.
So any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
