If you want your Mac to communicate with a PC-based network at home orin the office, you can go through the trouble of configuring the Windows networkto support you--or simply invite Thursby's Dave into your life. A few simple questions during setup are all it takes to get you connected. Afterinstallation, you'll enjoy the same level of access to Windows machines andPostscript printers on your local area network that PC users do. A browserwindow lets you examine networked volumes without having to mount them, and adouble click will then log you into the folder you want to use on your Mac. Youcan also return the favor by setting up a shared folder on your Mac that Windowsusers can access, using either user-level (if Windows NT is part your network)or share-level security.Read more

Access files on Windows
Dave is one of the best stealth products on the market. You load it on your Mac, and you can access any of your Windows machines.

IntragyAccess is a tightly integrated set of TCP/IP desktop client applications for enterprise network access. It gives network managers an easy and convenient way to outfit end users with applications for such mission-critical tasks as electronic messaging, desktop client out-dialing, local and remote file transfer and sharing, network printing, and accessing terminal-based applications.
