XP & 2K Adv Server sharing issue...

I have 2 machines on a LAN.
Win XP Pro
Win 2k Adv Server

They r both networked and can see each other in My
Network Places.
I set Permissions on the Win XP Pro machine's 2 hard
drives so that I can access them from the 2K Adv Server
machine.
I can access the Win XP Pro machine and see the shared
drives from the 2k Adv Server machine through My Network
Places, BUT when I try to access the shared drives,
access is denied.
For troubleshooting purposes, I set the shares and the
security to EVERYONE with full permission and I still get
denied access.

By the way, I CAN access the shared drives on the Win 2K
Adv Server machine from the Win XP machine with the same
permisions applied.

Is there somthing I missed?

Thanks
 
its a worgroup

do you have domain network or workgroup? if it is workgroup, make sure you
have create the same logon id and password on both computers.

Could you be able to solve this problem?, same happend to me. The only way
to gain access is to activate de "guest" user, but I don´t think this is the
solution. Please if you could solve this, send me the solution.
Kind Regards.

if guest works, this is permission issue. try this net use
\\remotecomputername /user:username command.
