When my network was working correctly, I could select a folder on one
of the computers, enable sharing for said folder and then access said
folder through the network from any of the other computers. Now, when I
go to My Network Places on another workgroup computer (all have the
same workgroup name), I can see the folder that I want to access, but
get the following error message when I try to open it.
"\\Amd2500a\outlook is not accessible. You might not have permission to
use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to
find out if you have access permissions.
Access is denied."
There is one, and only one folder on each computer that I am able to
get into. That is the Shareddocs folder. I can open AND print files in
the main computer's Shareddocs folder using the printer that is USB
cabled to the main computer, through one of the other networked
computers.
User name and passwords are the same on the two computers I am working
on. I am the only user of the two, and I am the administrator on both.
Permissions on the folder that I am trying to share are set to
"everyone" with "full control"
All software firewalls are turned off (when I work on this issue)
All computers are running XP Pro
I can ping the machines from each other through the Linksys router.
Thank you very much in advance for any suggestion you may have.
