Hi sorry this is beginner question: We connected two Win2k Prof as P2P and
would like to share a folder. Why do we always have to provide a UserName &
PW? We don't want to have any kind of security like that.
Everyone is LocAdmin and Everyone has permissions on the share as well on
the file system. What did we forget?

Yes ... but is there no other way? I mean if there are two users on that
machine with different desktops ... can they not just use their own user?
why should they use the Admin user to connect to another computer?

Make sure all computers are in the same workgroup and that all useraccounts
exist on all computers.

Yes,
what user logons does each user use?
If they both use administrator, ensure that the
administrator password on both machines is the same.
Otherwise if they each have a different user account:
create the same user accounts and passwords on both
machines, this way 2000 will cache the password that was
used during logon for connecting to the other workgroup
machine. Ensure that both users reside in the admin
groups on both machines.
When you map a drive, click the reconnect at startup
button to cache the password.

If you do not want to use passwords and configure user accounts, just enable the
guest account on the computer with the share. Normally this is not recommended,
but it may be appropriate in a small network of trusted users. It is a big risk
if you connect to the internet without a firewall though. --- Steve

AND the passwords for all the matched up accounts must
also match - exactly.
Tip: this is a home network, set the passwords to never
expire - otherwise your network will fail when they do...

Both computers have to have matching account names and
passwords, OR, make matching accounts on both computers,
and make sure the workstations are logged in as such. This
will avoid the prompt for user names and passwords when
trying to access a shared resource.
