How do I make a Windows PC a Registered User on a Mac?

I am not sure what you are wanting to do? Are you wanting to create a new user account on MacOS X or trying to connect to the Mac from a PC, or something else?
You know whenever you have something netowrk like a Windows PC and you are on the mac and want to get something the dialog Guest or Registered user pops up asking for user name and password. How can I get the to stop say connected as guest.
If you are connecting to a PC from the Mac, then either try connecting from the Finder with the Go -> Connect to server menu item specifying smb://<user>@server/ , for example smb://ajmas@mypc/ or a Finder window click on the PC share and then at the right of the window click on 'connect as'.
To connect to the Mac from the PC, you will need to go to the 'sharing' system preferences, activate 'file sharing' and then click on the 'options...' button. The click 'share files using SMB' and then check the users that you wish to allow to access the Mac.

Hi,
You can give the details of an already made user account (in this case it sounds like you need to give the details of the Admin, or the sole user account)
