I'm running XP on two desktops (one is network host) and
a laptop. I can access shared files on two other
competers from the host desktop, no problem. I can
access laptop files from other desktop, and vice versa,
no problem. but when I attempt from either to access
shared files on the host desktop, I receive a 2-part
error message saying (1) I don't have permission to
access the files, and (2) there is insufficient storage
space to process the command. Yet I have not restricted
access to the files,and there's more than 60% free disk
space on the host computer's hard drive.

Any suggestions?

RESOLUTION
==========

WARNING: If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious
problems that may
require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee
that you can solve
problems that result from using Registry Editor incorrectly. Use Registry
Editor at your own
risk.


To resolve this behavior, increase the IRPStackSize value in the registry:





1. Click Start, and then click Run.

2. Type "regedit" (without the quotation marks), and then click OK.

3. Navigate to the following key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parame
ters

4. In the right pane, double-click the IRPStackSize value.

NOTE: If the IRPStackSize value does not already exist, use the following
procedure to create it:

a. In the Parameters folder of the registry, right-click the right pane.

b. Point to New, and then click DWord Value.

c. Type "IRPStackSize" (without the quotation marks).

IMPORTANT: Type "IRPStackSize" exactly as it is displayed because the
value name is case-sensitive.

5. Change the Base to decimal.

6. In the Value Data box, type a value that is larger than the value
that is listed. If you created the IRPStackSize value using the
procedure described in step 4, the default value is 15. It is
recommended that you increase the value by 3. Therefore, if the
previous value was 11, type 14, and then click OK.

7. Close the Registry Editor.

8. Restart the computer.
