them. Two of them work perfectly, and I can access their files from any of
the other PCs. The third is more of a problem. If I try to access it through
the network browser I get access denied, and I get the same if I type its
address in (\\athsmedia-pc), however if I try to access a shared folder using
its full address (eg \\athsmedia-pc\downloads) I can access it without any
problems.
I have set up the shared folders in exactly the same way as I did on the
other two, and have tried removing and recreating the shares, as well as
disabling the firewall software.
In the network and sharing center I have everything but for the password
protected sharing turned on. The PC can also access the shared folders on the
other computers without any problems.
I have double checked the folder permissions on the shared folders, and
everyone is in the list.
When I try to access the list of shared folders a session is created as the
user guest.
The other thing I find weird is that the router to which all of the PCs are
connected does not list this PC as an attached device, however it does list
the other two. I tried resetting the router to factory default settings, but
it still doesnt show up. I have also checked the computer is getting its IP
address from the DHCP server in the router.
