I have a PC running Windows Vista Home Edition, and a Mac G4 running OSX 10.3.9 (Panther), both hardwired via ethernet to a Verizon FiOS modem/router.

I used to be able to get the D: drive of the PC to show up on the Mac desktop simply by Command-K ("connect to server") on the Mac and then selecting the IP address of the PC (which had conveniently already prepopulated the dropdown list thanks to the coworker who set this up for me a dozen years ago).

It no longer connects. I keep getting an "Error -36".

I have confirmed that the IP address of the PC is entered correctly.

Oddly, I had this exact same problem about a year ago…but it “self-corrected” after a couple of days. (?!?!)

Any idea what’s going on? Thanks.
