Shared drives on XP sp2   
Ever since I upgraded my wifes Mac to the new X os, I am unable to access my 
shared folders on my XP system. Not only will it not let me see the folders, 
it will no longer let me see the PC. Any idea's?

=====

there is some kind of issue/problem with Leopard where you cannot set 
the NETBIOS WORKGROUP and make it stick.

You can try it.....

system prefs-->network
click on ADVANCED for the network adapter you use
click on WINS
enter your Netbios workgroup name (whatever you have XP set to)
save it (try)

re-do these steps to see if it stuck

alternately, just open FINDER, click on GO TO and enter
smb://192.168.1.110  (of course, use the actual IP of your XP box)
