Trying to sharing a Windows 7 drive via SMB

schwachs · 2009-06-07 02:44

I have XBMC on my Mac Mini and was using XP to share to that XBMC/Mini w/ no problems. However, I can't seem to figure out how to do it w/ Windows 7 in any sort of reliable fashion. It asks me for a PW every time and I can't seem to get it to perma-save or not even req a pw.

Any one using this setup have any ideas?

Thanks!

I had trouble with Win7 shares....ended up manually entering the share path making sure to use all non capital letters, that seemed to be the problem.

can you paste in the syntax of what you put in? I can't seem to even get it hard-coded.
