Q: 10.7 on a windows workgroup not recognized by windows devices
I have an HP Digital Sender that used to work on my network just fine. It sends to the shared user folder (in a sub folder) and it was working great under 10.6 sending to
\\CANAVERAL\Shared\DigitalSenderDropbox\
The machine name is set properly in WINS and the device is on thet network and I can load up its web interface still (all machines on a 10.0.0.x network). However, the old device is not able to see the dropbox anymore.
Any ideas?
MacBook Pro 2.16 Dual Core, Mac OS X (10.4.6)

The FTP service in Lion cannot be enabled via System Preferences > File Sharing, as it was on 10.6. But you can enable it via Terminal as per this Apple KB article.
As for the connection, you will use IP and you will use your Mac's admin account/password to authenticate.
