>for all of those people getting the access denied you do
not have permission .... msg when trying to file share
and have been thus far unable to solve it I solved
mine. The problem was all my users on my windows xp pro
machines had no passwords and a setting on local security
policies was set to only allow them to log onto console
only if no password present. I changed the setting like
this:
>
>Go to Control Panel | Performance and Maintenance |
Administrative Tools | Local Security Policy.
>Expand Local Policies | Security options.
>Double-click Accounts: Limit local account use of blank
passwords to console login only, which is enabled by
default. Disable this option
>
>
>and problem solved I am now able to file and printer
share no problem. I suspect this has caused a lot of
other people problems so fyi.
