hyall,

here's the skinny:

i work on a corporate network that uses a domain.
through some evil sorcery, I am able to access my home computer's port
139.
there i want to access my home files.
the problem is that when i connect to the c$ share, at the prompt for
login i enter my home account and password, yet I am dismissed with
some obscure error

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/812793

obviously my xp is sp2.

is there any possibility to connect to a windows share using an account
that is not on the domain from which you are connecting?

Yes, I do such things all the time -- easiest to work from the command
line (and you can put it in a batch file once you get it sorted out.)

if so what should i do to make it work?

net use * \\DNS.Or.IP.Server\sharename * /user:XPcomputerName\UserName

So this will work if your IP is routable and 192.168.1.1

net use * \\192.168.1.1\sharename * /user:XPcomputerName\UserName

To work on the Internet the \\Name must be either a resolvable DNS name
OR the actual IP. The XPComputerName will be the one in the System
Control Panel (even if these two names are different.)


could there be some insane paranoid policy preventing me to do so?

Not if you can get connected on the right ports.
