<DIV><SPAN class=958031514-17012008><FONT face=Arial><FONT size=2>My wife's
computer must be able to read and write files on my MacMini. She can see the
Mini in the network list. She can even browse as far as my user directory. But
she cannot access any of the directories inside (Music, Pictures,
Documents, etc.). Each time she tries to open one of those, she gets an "access
denied" error. The problem is that she's not even prompted for a login.<SPAN

the Mac Mini from my XP box without issue. I get the login box, enter
the credentials, and I'm
in.</FONT> </FONT></SPAN></FONT></FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=958031514-17012008><FONT face=Arial size=2>So I did some
research last night and it appears that her version of Vista does not even have
the necessary application to allow her to login to a Mac computer from Vista.
There appear to be some workarounds, but I wanted to first ask you guys if any
of you have had luck getting this to work.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=958031514-17012008><FONT face=Arial size=2>One of the solutions
I found requires a program called gpedit.msc, which is the piece which is NOT on
her computer.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

going as soon as possible. Anyone have any ideas/solutions?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
