No solution except that I think you will need special software
to be able to see/read/run MAC apps., files, shortcuts, etc.
Unless, I think, unless you run under Windows 2000 Advanced
Servers.

MAC users can see Windows files.

I have seen Windows machines have trouble like this when connecting to an
unsecure Airport basestation. If you put a password on the airport
basestation, you will need the "network equivalent password" to connect a
windows client to an airport basestation. The password is found using the
Airport Admin software.

If that is not the issue, make sure 802.11x authentication is off on the
windows client and the airport is not set to filter out clients (such as MAC
address filtering.)
