Connecting Windows XP and a MAC

[billd222]

Hey/Howdy,

Is there a way to get Windows XP to network with a Macintosh? It networks fine with our Win2000 machines but our XP pro machines cannot acees it.
I read somewhere that WinXP discontinued appletalk.
Is this true? If so are there any 3rd party programs or workarounds that I mught try?

Thanx so much,

Bill D.

the medium is not the problem, there is no protocal installed. i believe apple does support tcpip, they wouldnt get on the internet if they did.
here is a 3rd party app that will do the trick

this is interesting, it seems mac even discontinued apple talk for a short while. os x didnt have it and they put it back in 10.1
