I have Windows XP and 98 machines connected on a local
area network.

One some of the machines when trying to access the XP
machines get's a password prompt like IPC$. Another
problem when accessing some other XP machines I can
access some files but the file comes up Read Only. I
tried to set the users up in administrator and it also
the file comes up "Read Only". The file isn't read only
but the Folder property is.

What might be the problem?
 
Make sure that when you access throught the 98 machine to
the XP, that you are logged in with the same username and
password as one that exist on the XP machine. Otherwise
you will continue to be prompted IPC...


Unsure as to the read only access...
Hope that helps
 
Huh???

I don't understand why that would matter. I've never seen
an article that talks about this.
