File Sharing
Posted by Toni on December 4th, 2007


We should have a template for this one.

2 computers both running Windows XP Pro. Simple file sharing turned off on
both. I want to share one folder from Computer A with Computer B. Computer B
is on wireless. I identified the folder on Computer A as shared. Permissions
set to all users. No luck. Get the old "xxx is not accessible. You might not
have ......." when I try to access Computer A's folder from Computer B. I can
access anything on Computer A from Computer B using Remote Desktop
Connection. Success every try but I can't see one little folder when I use
the Windows XP controls. I'm starting to wonder if File Sharing in Windows XP
works at all or if it is just a myth.

Any suggestions.

P.S. I can access all files on Computer B from Computer B using simple file
sharing.
