Successful Sharing involves some general consideration in Network settings, http://www.ezlan.net/sharing.html As well as specific adjustment of each computer according to what it is allowed to be shared. Windows XP File Sharing - http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;304040 Printer Sharing XP - http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/networking/expert/honeycutt_july2.mspx Windows Native Firewall setting for Sharing XP - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/875357 Windows XP patch for Sharing with Vista - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/922120 Jack (MVP-Networking). <dan.cawthorne(a)gmail.com> wrote in message news:272f7324-ff78-44df-af86-96cc16443389(a)m44g2000hsc.googlegroups.com... > Hello all i was wondering if some one could assist me in why i cant > get my laptop and pc to work on a network, > > I've followed the networking wizard, and seem to have the network set > up, but this is what happening. > > the Laptop is setup on a workgroup "HOME" and my laptop is called > DANLAPTOP > > I have the shared folders shared and some other folders in "My > Documents" > > I ran the the wizard on the Computer as detailed in the steps using > the the xp disk, > > the computer is also on the workgroup "HOME" and Computer is Called > DANPC > > When i go into my networks view work group computers via my PC I can > see DANLAPTOP and DANPC > > I can access the DANLAPTOP and all the shared folders, Great i > thought, > > But when i go via my Laptop and can also see DANLAPTOP and DANPC But > it wont let me access my DANPC and im promted with the following error > message? > > \\DANPC is not accessible, you might not have permission to use this > network resource? > > > Can some one point me out in the right direction? > > Thanks > > Danny >

A common one is a personal firewall. <http://networking.nitecruzr.net/2005/05/your-personal-firewall-can-either-help.html> http://networking.nitecruzr.net/2005/05/your-personal-firewall-can-either-help.html And if you're using SFS, restrictanonymous is a known cause for your problem. <http://networking.nitecruzr.net/2005/07/restrictanonymous-and-your-server.html> http://networking.nitecruzr.net/2005/07/restrictanonymous-and-your-server.html -- Cheers, Chuck, MS-MVP 2005-2007 [Windows - Networking] http://networking.nitecruzr.net/
