Before I posted this question, I searched for similar articles and did not find what I was looking for<br />
<br />
I have a clean recently rebuilt Windows 2008 R2 server that’s running as a standalone server in a workgroup. (It Is not in a domain)<br />
I have a folder called DATA on this server that fully shared out with Full Control (for now)<br />
- &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I need to map a drive from a new MAC to this shared folder. What to I need to do on the MAC and/or Server?<br />
<br />
NOTE: everything I’m reading relates policies with a domain controller – or to download the remote access client for MAC<br />
<br />
I recall there’s a certain way to map using SMB or another protocol<br />
<br />
Any help would be appreciated.
