Full Version: Setting up SMB connection and getting "Invalid Computer Name"
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
I'm attempting to connect a second mac to my xbmc for filesharing and I'll go to the Videos, select "add source" then "browse." I'll select my workgroup then it brings up the computers on my network. It sees my iMac but when I click on it, it freezes for a bit before sending back "invalid computer name."

I had this iMac up and running just fine on the xbmc before I had to do a reformat of the entire computer and replaced the motherboard. That's the only difference I can think of!

My macbook connects just fine. I went through and made sure all the settings were the same.. I can't figure this out!! Huh

Anyone with suggestions?! Thanks. Big Grin
