I know these are basic questions, but they are driving me crazy and for some reason I cannot figure them out.
Problem 1: I want to map a network drive/share from the VM (running XP) to the Mac (running Leopard). I want to be able to drag and drop a file from Outlook in XP into that shared folder so I can open it on the Mac side. I want to do this using the OS network sharing features, not the VMs method, which I have found slow and unstable.
I assume I share the folder on the Mac side. But how do I map to it on the XP side.
I should say that I have XP Pro and it logs into my domain, whereas Mac does not. Mac does sees the folders on my domain server.
Problem 2: I have a Brother printer connected by USB to Mac. Mac prints to it perfectly. I want to be able to print to it from the VM/XP side. I assume, therefore, I have to share the printer, and connect it in XP. Can someone help.
I appreciate it.
