Networking error linking XP Home to XP Professional

[Kristi]

I completed the home network wizard, can see the
computers on the network but when I try to access a
computer on the network, it says I don't have the
authority, contact your administrator. I am the
administrator! Perhaps it has something to do with
linking a XP Home to a XP Professional computer?.? I've
shared all the files, turned off the firewall on both
computers, created accounts that are the same on each
computer, now what? Any suggestions?

Try playing with the permissions for the files and
folders that are shared. Make sure that Everyone has
perbmission adn that you have ownership of the files and
folders you want to share
