Hi all,
I'm sharing my Public folder on my iMac. I have file sharing enabled, both with afp and smb. I have the "Allow guests to connect to shared folders" enabled on the guest account. Previously when I was running SL, I could access the shared folder from my Vista computer by typing \\192.168.20.120 (iMac's IP address). A box would then pop up prompting for my user name and password. All I had to do was enter "guest" for the user name and I was in. After installing Lion, whenever I enter "guest", it tells me incorrect password. When I browse my network on the Vista computer, I see the iMac, I just can't connect and authenticate.
Oh, I also have a shared folder on my Vista computer and the iMac has no problems connecting to it. Does anyone have any idea what I can do so that my Vista computer and access my shared folders on my iMac? Thanks!
