Connecting a Mac to a Win 7 network
I've seen a few links on the web, but nothing that definitively describes howto do it without confusing me to death.
I have a houseguest staying for a few weeks who will be using a new Macbook pro to access my wireless Window7 network(for the internet and maybe some printing). My thing is, while I trust her, I don't want her poking around in my Jobs and business folders. How can I get her access to the internet, while denying her access to my network drives? |
Wow. I can't imagine trusting someone in my house that I don't trust not to try to ha><><0r my boxen.
AFAIK, one has to explicitly set permissions to access network drives. So, just don't give her permission and you will have no issue. |

So once I log her into my router, she'll show up as a user? Then I imagine I'll just go into my permissions and turn off access to specific drives under her user name? Sorry to be retarded, but I have no idea how Macs and PCs work together. |
