It should be the username and password from the laptop.

Are you actually talking about pinging? I've never heard of authenticated pinging. Do you mean when you try to access the shared resources?

What are the operating systems involved? You can disable authentication in file sharing (allowing you to access resources without a password) but the steps are different from one OS to another.

shared drive of ur laptop that is good solution of that problem
