On my Powerbook w/ Panther, when I got it about three weeks ago, I turned on Windows File Sharing; I was able to access all of my shared drives on my XP machines. Now when I look in Finder under the correct workgroup I can't see my networked drives.
It was working before but not now, anyone have any ideas what the problem could be?
Thanks in adv.

Have you tried 'Go > Connect to Server' as well as the Finder windows? Sometimes it seems it will show in one but not the other...

just tried Go, that didn't work either .

sometimes when you disconnect from a router, or your network restarts it reassigns IP addresses so you may have to recreate new shortcuts to access your mac again

I can access the mac fine, it always works coming from my PC, its accessing the pcs from the mac that i am having problems with.
Like i go to my MSHOME workgroup and it dosnt list the pc's anymore which it once did.

This is the point where I usually call Applecare...
(they cant always fix it, but I can at least give them a hard time about it)
