I use to have XP home on 3 machines and all could access each others hard
drives no problem. No,I loaded WinXP Pro on one machine, and it sees all
others, access all others, and all ohters see it and shared drives. BUT when
you try to open a drive from another computer on the WinXP pro machine you
get a \\C\machine not accessible. You might not not have
permission....Contact Admin....Not enough Server storage...

What is the easiest way to give permissions similar to winXP home?

Thanks.

You could try right clicking the folders you wish to
provide access to, and select properties, then
the "Sharing Tab" and mark the check box for "Network
Sharing and Security" and input a share name.

Yea, I already have it enable with a hand under the drive icon.

Any other ideas anyone?
