Hello. I have a strange issue on my home network. I am unable to share files and apps on it. I have set everything according to tutorial I found on internet but it seems that something is missing. From one computer I can access resources on second computer, but from second one I can not access resources on first computer. It asks me for username and password and no matter what I enter it says that I do not have enough privileges to gain access to shared resources. Any hint about this problem?

Hello. You probably have two computers with two different operating systems on your network. I guess that one of them is Windows XP Professional ( the one that can access shared resources) and that another one is Windows XP home, Windows ME or Windows 98. Anyway, you have to enable guest account on Win XP Pro computer and to create account with same username and password as on account you use to log on second computer.
