Unable to add additional shared folders



I have 2 PCs on a home network: XP Pro & XP Home. I have recovered from a
fatal crash on XP Home with a new installation. Data did survive.

XP Home accesses internet via XP Pro and works fine.

2 folders - Shared & user-a - that were previously shared, continue to be
shared. This is true on both computers. Each computer can access two folders
on the other.

I have not been able to share any additional folders, including folders that
were shared prior to the crash.

How should I troubleshoot this?
