When logged onto WinXP Home machines, I recieve access
denied errors when attempting to connect to Win2KPro
shares. Workgroups are the same. User Name and
Passwords are the same. I've tried to connect with and
without passwords, and nothing seems to work.
Thanks for any help.
 
Check if the share on 2k is having read/write permission
for user trying to connect from xp.
Also try if you can access admin share from xp of 2k.
In start run, you can type "\\computer name\c$" where
computer name is the name of your 2k machine. when
prompted for user name and password here, login as Admin
of 2k.

Thanks Nimit. The "Everyone" group has full access. The
user account we are logged in as also has full access.
I've never experienced this problem with WinXPPro. Could
it be something with WinXPHome?
