I don't think I've tried to move anything directly between Win 7 and
OSX except by USB drive.
But assuming that I needed to, all 3 of my OSX machines use Parallels
to also run Win XP, and one of my Win 7 desktops is "Ultra" and so has
"Virtual XP mode available to it. So there are a couple of ways to make
the network connection XP-to-XP and eliminate both OSX and Win 7 from
the equation.
The oldest OSX I've ever had was 10.4, which I never had a problem
connecting to NETBT (NetBIOS over TCP/IP) with, so I don't know how well
10.3.9 did this....)

Subject: [PCBUILD] Mac/Win7 Network

I have a small business network that has an older Mac G4, OS 10.3.9, and
worked perfectly with XP for years (Primary use:Transfer files to the XP
from the Mac).
I've installed a Win7 machine and it flat refuses to allow the Win7
machine
to log on to the Mac, regardless of the fact that all the settings
appear
to be correct and all the passwords are known, including new accounts I
created to test this problem.
I have a lot of experience with Workgroups and I think I've done all the
right things.
My networking Guru says this just happens sometimes, which is hard to
believe. Do we have a Mac expert?
Thanks.
