I got my first official MacBook today, and so far (excluding an issue with Logitech's Control Center and Growl, which isn't Apple's fault) I'm pretty happy.
But I can't seem to get my Mac to connect to my Windows machine. Ideally, I wanted to be able to connect to it and stream all of my media over (and relying on a VNC server when I wasn't in my home network), but Leopard simply refuses to cooperate.
When I first booted up, I could see my PC, but I couldn't connect (giving me an error saying it wasn't available). Now, for some reason I can't seem to see any Windows shares at all.
I have already tried creating a new location and setting the workgroup to match the PC's, but nothing has worked. I know there are a lot of solutions (which don't seem to work for everyone), so I'm curious if anyone else has had this problem, and what, if anything, have they done to fix it.
