Firewalls and not excepting file and print sharing....

I tried this already

Guest Account
by Rich G. - 4/25/05 11:18 AM In reply to: "you might not have permission to use this network resource" by jxp604Is the guest account disabled on the XP Home laptop? XP Home cannot disable Simple File Sharing and the Guest account is used to authenticate all network access when Simple File Sharing is enabled.
I've got exactly the same problem linking an XP Pro laptop..
by knee_boarder - 5/4/05 9:37 AM In reply to: "you might not have permission to use this network resource" by jxp604to Windows 2000. The Win2k box has no problem accessing the XP Pro laptop shares, but I get that error when trying to get onto the Win2k shares. I'm running ZoneAlarm but have the IP address of the laptop (fixed) in the "trusted" section.
This problem is driving me nuts cos I want to use the Win2k box as the Internet connection for all my home networked pc's, as well as to file share.
has anyone any ideas?
sorted it
by knee_boarder - 5/4/05 1:14 PM In reply to: I've got exactly the same problem linking an XP Pro laptop.. by knee_boarderchanged the Security Policy to "classic" in MMC - well didn't actually change it, but going in and then clicking ok again solved the problem.
just got to get the net connection working now!
Be more specific?
by surfbored - 5/8/05 7:52 AM In reply to: sorted it by knee_boarderCan you be a bit more specific on how you solved this problem?
I'm experiencing something similar -- All the Win2k PCs can see each other fine, and the WinXP PC can see the workgroup, but not any of the Win2k PCs in the group.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
