Hi all,
I have a crazy problem that does not make sense.
I have a notebook that is running Win2k SP4 and a PC the
is running Win XP SP1.
Problem is - I can connect from the PC to the Notebook,
but not the reverse, Notebook to the PC.
When I try to map, from the notebook, a share or C$ the
connect as procedure fails. If I do the same from the PC
things work fine.

I don't get it.
Thank you in advance
Gordon
 
I have the same issue ....and i mean preciesly the same ..

it is not relevant to the sercive packs i think mine are
up to date both of them , ( i only once had them working
both ways ( this was with my cable connection in a uplink
port and both machines connected to the hub ... which
makes no sense to me

the weirdest thing is i can go on the shared internet
connection of the xp machine but not any drive , you do
get prompted for username and pass but it does not take
any of them ....a friend told me the user and pass need to
be the same ....haven't tried that yet ...

how r u connected to the net ?
