We have a NT network setup at work. All machines are
NT4.0 workstations except one which is on XP pro. We are
sharing folders on that machine but none of the NT
workstations can access them. The xp machine can access
shared folders on the NT workstations. This is the msg
that comes up when we try to access the XP machine.

"..folder" is not accessible.
Not enough server storage is available to process this
command.

Our server has enough hard drive space left on it.

Any help is appreciated.

Have you tried disabling the xp built in firewall?

That error message is very misleading. The problem is probably that
an antivirus program has changed an obscure TCP/IP setting. Please
see this Microsoft Knowledge Base article for a likely solution,
specifying a value of 15 for IRPStackSize on the XP machine:
