Cannot access shared foldersI have a workgroup of 6 computers running XP Pro. All computers can access
each others files and folders (where permitted) except that I cannot access Computer 5 from Computer 6 - no matter what I have tried. I can access Computers 5 and 6 from the other computers. All computers are set up the same way and Simple File Sharing is On. All folders which I particularly want to access on Computer 5 have been individually shared and permissions assigned and have the hand symbol showing - but I consistently get 'Access is denied .....you may not have permission to access this computer ... ask your system administrator.' The computer and its shared folders are visible on the network. This is preventing the setup of Sage Accounts on Computer 6 - because it needs to access the company data on computer 5. Any suggestions would be appreciated! Hi
Since it seems that you are employing permission switch Simple File sharing Off. Jack (MS, MVP-Networking).
