I should thank you for reminding me something I missed in my case. I have one desktop,
2 laptops, all are runing xp pro.Like everyone here encountered, I did have same
problem about sharing files in my small home network. I went through all contributor's
methods before your thread, finally I can make 2 laptops access each other and desktop
can access 2 laptops but 2 laptops can't access desktop. and your thread just gave
me useful tips, I checked the permission setting of fold shared on desktop and realized
there was no "everyone" or "guest" account associated.... I added "guest" account.
everything works very well now. thanks to all posters here. to do some little conclusion:
philips's method is must, NetBios via TCP/IP is unnecessary. hope this helpful.
Have good weeks.
