I have 2 pcs on a lan, both are winxp pro under the same work group etc.
Both have their desktop shared.

On pc 1 I can go to network places, work group and computers, and double
click on pc 2 to access its shares.
However, if I do the same thing on pc 2 and try to connect to pc 1, it says
it is not accessible or I might not have permissions, access denied.

I have even gone as far as making a user name on pc 2 that is the same as an
existing user name on pc 1 but no success.

Oops, sorry for reposting. I guess my newsreader is acting up because I
didn't see Chuck [MVP]'s reply till just now.
