Default "Access is Denied" W2K to WXP SP2 fileshares

Have an interesting problem that seems fairly common
according to the current threads being posted, however I
have a different twist..

I work from home on a W2K SP4 laptop from which I backup
files weekly to my WXP SP2 machine... Well, that was at
least before SP2..

I CAN actually connect to the fileshare, however I get the
message "F:\ is not accessible. Access is Denied."

I've tried it with the Firewall on and off.. Simple File
Sharing is enabled.

Username and password is the same on both machines
(although that hasn't mattered in the past)

I can definitely see the WXP SP2 shared directories and
printer from the W2K machine and can connect but cannot
see the contents or move files...

Any thoughts?

Thanks, Ron
