Default Re: network place password


i'm actually trying to connect my mac to my
pc. my mac has a network address that me pc can see. when i try to
connect to that box, a dialog box comes up that says connecting to
that address. it then asks for a user name and password. i think i
need to reset that password. i've tried to reastablish this connection
but it always comes back to this box. any ideas?
thanks again
jon
