Cannot get CIFS to work?

Hi,

I'm a complete noob, but i'm still trying to get Alfresco to work like a "shared drive".

I'm using Alfresco 3.2r2 on a Windows 7 computer.
I just installed Alfresco, without changing anything.

As far as I understand CIFS should work out of the box.
But as I try to access the CIFS server from explorer I cannot connect.
It keeps asking for a username and password, but whatever I try admin or administrator it
keeps coming back with the question for the username and password.

My computername = bergjes

in explorer I try to connect with \\bergjesA\Alfresco

Am I missing something?

Any help is welcome, thanks.

Hi guys and thanks for all the help and suggestion offered. I finally gave up and moved the whole Alfresco setup to a Linux box and… oh miracle… everything works! Yihaaa! No more CIFS troubles… just a bit slow though.

Anyway, thanks again.
