Currently at my school there is a Mac run server for video production. To connect to it we use AFP (Appletalk Filing Protocol) and I've got a guest username and password for it. Thing is, I can connect easily on any Mac anywhere on campus via our intranet.

The problem: I cannot connect to this server on my PC. I'm running Windows XP Pro (SP3 updated). I tried FTP and it connects but then says I am disconnected by a remote host. So hey - that's no good. How exactly could I connect to this Apple server using the CMD shell on a PC? Is there some free software I could use?

I only want to be able to view material that is stored on this server. I don't necessarily NEED to transfer files back and forth. Any suggestions?
