Not that I've had much experience with networks, but ... I can't mount anything from anything, using any password - e.g. Not the windows from the P/book using p/book's and/or window's password, not the p/book from the iMac using iMac's or P/book's password etc etc (what are there? 3! possible permutations :-) Is there a simple fix like 'nuke network passwords and start again' or am I doing something stupidly wrong :-) T.I.A.
