Hi,
I've shared folders with my two pc which is win2k and winxp. I'm able to share and open folders in my win2k via my winxp pc but i'm unable to share my winxp folders with my win2k pc even though i'm able to see mywinxp pc in my win2k pc. Pl help. The error i received is \\Winxp is not accessible. Access is denied.

Hello,
File sharing requires 4 things: network, network protocol, network services, and file permissions.
Sounds like you have the network and protocol phases correct... one machine can talk to the other.
My guess is to see if the share is properly configured on XP, and if youhave sharing permissions setup on the XP box.
I think you will find it a permissions problem, as the computer is reporting Access Denied.
