I am having a problem accessing a share that is on an XP machine.
I am using OSX 10.4.7 and have accessed the share before.
I can access other shares in the house on other machines, and others can access the one that I am having problems with. I think the IP address of the machine in question may have changed.
I can not connect to it using the connect to server routine via either SMB://IPADDRESS or SMB://NAME etc or any other variant that I can think of.

Does any one out there know if a way to kill any cached information regarding the shares and make it rebuild it or at least rebuild the one I can not connect to?

This is really strange.

THanks a lot!
