Hi Gretchen, Have you tried that software called Dave from http://www.thursby.com/products/dave.html ? It installs on the Mac and supposedly sees everything Windows is sharing on the network. There's an eval version there if you're willing to try one more thing.
Has anyone else on the list tried this particular software? I've got a Wallstreet running OS 9.2.2, and I tried it out, but it didn't work because my printer didn't support Postscript language. (That's a topic for another thread!) I could connect to all of the file shares though. Good luck!
