Re: P2P networking

Thanks again for your input. By addding the items in step 4 the other
computers were able to access computer 2 but whenever computer 2 is rebooted
the area get cleared out and the access is lost. Any idea what could be
causing this?

Compute2 have sharing activated but no-one can access it.

Thanks for posting the error message -- it really helps.

Run XP's Network Setup Wizard on Computer2 -- that's often all that's
needed to fix the "Logon failure" problem.

If that doesn't fix it, follow these steps on Computer2:

1. Click Start | Run, type "secpol.msc" in the box, and click OK.
2. Click Local Policies.
3. Click User Rights Assignment.
4. Click "Access this computer from the network" and make sure that
the Everyone group is included.
5. Click "Deny access to this computer from the network" and make sure
that the Everyone group is NOT included.

Thanks for the information. I tried your suggestions but I could still
not
make it work. Still get the same error message when I try to access
computer #2.

You're welcome.

What does your computer show for users or groups in Step 4 above? My
computer shows Administrators, Backup Operators, Everyone, Power
Users, and Users.

What does your computer show for users or groups in Step 5 above? My
computer shows SUPPORT_388945a0.
