    Ok, so I have a laptop running windows xp (connected directly to a router) and a macbook pro running parallels 3.0 (connected wireless)

    What do I need to setup so I can use parallels to access the shared files on the laptop? I can access it fine using mac os, just can't seem to get it working within parallels.

    Thanks!

    The easiest way is to use Bridged Networking for Parallels.

    Alternatively, set-up natd and ipfw to forward those ports to your Windows VM.
