Please email me regarding this question, cheers!

I have four PCs in the office, each connected to a router and ADSL modem.
Three PCs are Win2000 and one is XP. The Win2000s can share folders/files
freely just by adjusting the Sharing Properties of folders/files. But while
Win2000 PCs can see the WinXP PC on the network workgroup, it cannot
gain access to its shared contents. However the WinXP PC can see the shared
files on the Win2000 PCs.

Disable XP's built-in firewall (ICF).

quoted from http://www.ChicagoTech.net
.... is not accessible

Message: "....is not accessible. You may not have permission to use this
network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if
you have access permissions. Network path was not found."

Resolutions:
1) make sure no any firewall running.
2) make sure you have created the same workgroup, and the same username on
w2k/xp for logging on a remote computer.
3) check user's rights.
4) you may want to enable guest account on w2k/xp.
5) if you are using simple file sharing, you may try to disable it and
re-share the drive manually.
6) if it is mixed OS (win98, NT, ME and W2K/XP) network, enable NetBIOS over
TCP/IP.
7) make sure the Computer Browser service is started if all computers are
w2k/xp.
8) stop Computer Browser service on win9x, ME and NT if this is a mixed OS
network.
9) cache credential by using net use \\computername\share /user:username
command (it is better to have the username logon shared computer).
10) if you have tried enabling netbios over tcp/ip but doesn't work, you may
try to load netbeui (loading netbeui may slow your network).
11) Make sure the server service is running.
12) If you can see the share in Network Neighborhood but not access it, this
issue may be resolved by verifying that both the share permissions and the
NTFS partition permissions are correctly configured for individual user or
group access.
