I am in the process of trying to add a computer to a home network that
have two machines already on it.

So far I have got all machines set up on the same Network group and
with Internet access.

The new machine though, I can not connect to it from the other
computers. I get a pop-up which has a guest account filled out for me
and asking me to enter a password.

How do I set it up so that I can access without password?

I can connect from the new system to the other two systems without any
problems, but the other way around I need to somehow allow the other
two systems access.

Thanks for any help

Is asking to much to supply the O/S(s) in question?

I have been taking a look at the following web page:

http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;304040

I have been able to get the new system set up so the other computers
can now access certain parts of it that I have chosen to share; eg
folders with digital photos in.

I just wondered how many people have a lot of experience with Windows
XP when it comes to user permissions?

I have three systems on a Network. One Win 98se, One XP Pro, the
other XP Home. I am a little baffled by the access levels. If I want
to allow one system (XP Pro) connected on the network to have level 4
or 5 access to everything on the XP Home System how can I set this up?
Is it possible to without letting the other system have the same
access?

Since I added the new XP Home machine to the network, there seems to
be something else within the user accounts on the Pro machine. It says
"ASP.NET Machine A..." It is listed as a limited password protected
account? What is this? Is it the XP Home machine and the access it
has to certain folder on my Pro machine?

In XP Home, in the User account settings their seems to be two
choices, either Administrator or Limited account.

I have taken a look at the differences between the two types of
accounts here:
http://www.jmu.edu/computing/securit...winadmin.shtml

If a User is set up on a Limited account, are their any problems that
could arise? It doesn't have a tick in the box that says "access and
read all non-private files". Would this mean that the user would have
trouble opening a lot of files? Even his own after he had created
them? Would the user be able to save things still? I'm a little
confused on this, and just what a Limited user can and can not do in
terms of everyday computer use.

I would like to prevent a few users from installing and running
programs, but I would still like them to be able to run things already
on the system. I wouldn't want there to be problems with running
things like Explorer and Messenger.

Cheers for any advice

You can't. XP Home doesn't have the same security features as Pro.

It's for applications that will run on your machine that will be using .NET
technology. The applications can be Windows desktop or Web based
application. Companies are now developing .NET applications which are now
being developed increasingly in the private business sectors but has not
made to the consumer sector on a wide basis. It's coming to the home
consumer.

The Limited account has some restrictions as indicated by your link.

Here is some more info. I don't use the Home edition only Pro so I cannot
tell you about the Limited account.

If you don't want a user to be able to install anything, then you don't give
them Admin rights.

http://labmice.techtarget.com/articl...ychecklist.htm

I disable the Guest account, use Authenticated User on Shares and delete all
other accounts of the share giving Authenticated User full access rights
and I disable Simple File sharing on the Pro machines.

And the machines are behind the protection of an appliance such as a NAT
router.

Some people just have too much time on their hands.

Some people can't.

I can not help you tell me about the limited account.

Do you want a user to be able to install anything?

You do and I'll bash your head into the concrete.
