File sharing on peer to peer network

It sounds as if you have XP Pro. By default it forces all
incoming connections to use the Guest account, and by
default, the guest account is turned off.

If you want XP Pro to not fortce the use of the Guest
account, but rather a method more similar to all previous
versoins of windows;
- Click Start
- Click Run
- Type Explorer
- Click Tools
- Click Folder Options
- Click the View Tab
- Scroll to the bottom
- Uncheck Use simple file sharing

Now go back and reshare those files and folder. On the
Sharing Tab, verify the contents of the Permisions button,
and check out the contents on the security tab.

I have a home network with one computer running XP and
the
other two running 2K. The XP computer can access files
and programs on either of the other machines. Neither of
the 2K machines can access files or programs on the XP
machine, even though the can see the XP computer. The XP
files have been set up for sharing. Any ideas on what
the
problem is would be appreciated.
