John,
This is on our local network, so, I think I would use, command-shift- k.
We have several macs here, and when we want to connect to another one, I use command-k. Type in the ip address of teh machine I wish to connect to, and then I get prompted to login. (which if it had a shared guest account wouldn't happen). Once I log in, I'm presented with a list of drives I have access to, and I can mount any or all of them. 
That's all there is to it.
If I were connecting to a windows machine, I would change the afp:// to smb:// and again, as long as the windows machine was sharing the directory I wanted access to, I could simply mount it, and off I'd go. I have done this before. Not sure what the command-shift-k command keystroke does (if it exists) but the command-k works whether it's a local or remote service. 
hth.
