I have a wireless network with two desktops and one
laptop connected all running XP. One of the desktops and
the laptop seem to be running properly with each able to
access each others shared files. The other desktop (DELL)
is able to access the shared files on each of the other
computers but will not allow access the other way. The
error message received by the other computers when access
is attempted is "\\server is not accessible. You might
not have permission to use this resource. Contact the
administrator of this server to find out if you have
access permissions. The network path was not found."
I have checked all of the boxes to share files where I
have found them. I have also successfully pinged each of
the computers with the others. My guess is that this
issue has something to do with 'administrator' priveleges
but I have been unable to find any information on how to
verify priveleges. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
hi Ted look at our ntfs permisions again as well as your
share level premision for the folders you are sharing out
remeber that by default XP does not give access to evryone
at the full contorl level so check both the sharing tab
and ensure everyone has full control then look at the
security tab and ensure evryone has full control there to
