I have a Win 2000 PC and a Win XP Home Laptop, both have 10/100 fast ethernet
LAN Cards installed, the windows 2000 machine has IP of 10.16.1.2 and the win
XP has 10.16.1.1. I can ping one machine from another and connect from the
windows XP to windows 2000 machine and I can view shared folders of WIn 2000
in Win XP, but i cannot access win XP from Win 2000 despite successfull
'pings' i cannot view shared folders of win xp in win 2000.

thanks

Here are a couple of tips:
- Turn off all firewalls during testing (especially the WinXP firewall!)
- Instead of reporting that you "cannot access WinXP from Win2000",
try to be more specific by opening a Command Prompt on the
Win2000 PC and typing this command:

net use x: \\NameOfWin2000PC\NameOfShare

What response do you get?

Hi,
I have disabled WIN XP Firewall. I have kept the whole of c: as shared
on Win XP , when I try to connect to the WinXP machine using \\10.16.1.1, i
get a message saying that the user has not been granted the requested logon
type on this computer. I did not understand the error...

thanks..

Turn off "Simple file sharing" in "My Computer" / Tools /
Folder Options / View. See also here:
(http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=307874#3)

You should also check if you can make a connection when
logged on as administrator.
