Hi Everyone. I am a relative newbie to networks, and have what seems a
simple problem, but cannot find a solution.
I have a desktop and laptop, both running win xp sp2. I have used the
network wizard to set up an ethernet network on both. Both computers
can access the internet no problem. However whereas the desktop can
see and access shared files on the laptop, the converse is not true.
Although the laptop can see the shared file folders on the desktop, an
error message appears when I try to open the folder: "...\shared docs
is not accessible. You might not have permission etc."
Any suggestions gratefully received.( I have turned off firewalls).
Thanks
