Hello; I've been fighting with "home networking / file sharing" for ages, it always seems to be a problem or tempermental at best. Again, today I need to copy a file across machines and am again fighting with getting it working, so far no luck.
I have 2 computers hooked up to a Linksys router. Both machines are running Windows XP. The one I want to connect to has File Sharing enabled + several folders shared.
The computer I'm using TRYING to connect to the shared folders sees the computer name in the My Network Places under Entire Network. However, like always, when I try to connect I get:
- - - - - - - -
\PhotoStation is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact your administrator... blah blah blah.
The network path is not found.
- - - - - - - -
I can't find anywhere on the PhotoStation machine to set permissions anymore; Am I missing something really obvious and suffering needlessly? ;-)
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Mike
