I just recently (well, yesterday) purchased an iMac. It's replacing a Windows box. I have another Windows box (running Windows 7) that acts as a file server. I was able to freely access the files stored on the server (which I named Teletraan) from the other computer. Unfortunately, I'm having a hell of a time trying to get this to work with the iMac.
I followed the steps described
here to the letter, but it won't work. Every try to connect to Teletraan I get a "Connection Failed" dialogue box. I've tried it with both the Wi-Fi and ethernet connections and I run into the same problem. I really have no idea why this isn't working. I followed the steps exactly and everything appears to be configured the way it needs to be configured. I'm at a complete loss right now.
Does anyone have any idea what I might be doing wrong? I'm pretty much out of ideas. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
