Don’t forget you could always go the other way around and use the Mac as your file share point, just a thought.

Subject: [MSUNAG] Windows and Mac file sharing for small lab

I have a lab that is made up of 3 Mac’s that aren’t networked together at this time, but would like to use a new Dell PC as a fileserver for all 3 Mac’s.  Anyone have any advice for setting this up?  The Mac’s are about 1 year old (PowerPC’s) running OSX (10.4.x)  The Dell is brand new.  They were thinking of using Folder Share, but were asking if this is the best way to go without spending much money.  If software is needed for this to happen, they are willing to purchase it.

Thanks,
Javier Ornelas
