When I try to connect to another computer on our office network, I keep
getting asked for a password. This just started happenning. We have never
had to enter a password before and to my kowledge we have never setup any for
our network. How do I change this and go back to the old way. I can see the
other computers on our network but cannot connect to them to share files etc.

Thanks so much in advance for the help.
 
Hi
There are hundreds of combinations of software and device that are called
Office Network.
Which one is yours?
In general, successful Sharing involves some general consideration in
Network settings, http://www.ezlan.net/sharing.html
As well as specific adjustment of each computer according to what it is
allowed to be shared.
