For one reason or another I cannot enable windows sharing after doing a clean install of Kalyway 10.5.2. I installed it on this machine previously and windows sharing worked out of the box. I ran the JaS update to 10.5.3 and could no longer access any drive connected to my Sata RAID controller. So I started over with a fresh Kalyway 10.5.2 install, now my windows shares dont show up. I am not even given the option to enable it in System Preferences / Sharing. It's as if SMB did not install. I am able to access my Mac Shares and the connected printer from my various Windows PCs. Any helpful information is greatly appreciated.

I don't know if that's what's getting you, but here it goes: In 10.5.3, Windows Sharing is no longer an option in 'Sharing', it must be enabled at System 'Preferences' » 'Sharing' » Enable 'File Sharing' then hit 'Options' and then 'Share Files and Folders using SMB'.

 

Hope it helps.

I'm using Leo4All and I see my Windows PC in the sharing screen but as soon as I double click it, it says "Connection Failed." I click Connect AS and nothing happens. I just redid this Dell PC that previously had TOH's Leopard 10.5.2 and it worked using that version but not sure why not with Leo's. I don't have the firewall turned on on the Windows machine. Any ideas what happened?
