I've got a small Windows network with 2 XP computers and 1 NT computer. I've
set the Share Permissions on the NT computer to NETWORK -- Full Control.
However, when I try to access the NT shares from the XP computers I get a
log-in dialog requiring a user name and password that has not been set up.
How can I set up the shares to eliminate this dialog? Note that when I enter
a user name in this dialog the computer name gets attached also.
