We have a wireless network and we are using a Linksys
Access point as the router. A PC is physcally wired into
the router and 2 laptops are connected through wireless
cards. One laptop is running XP, the other 2000
professional and the PC is running Millenium.

When sharing is enabled on the laptop running 2000, the
other computers are unable to access it because it keeps
saying no authorization to access this computer. This
laptop can access the other two computers without a
problem, and the other two can access each other as well.

I have typed in the correct workgroup, and at am a loss as
to what the problem could be.

Thanks

Log on the other computer with an account that exists on the laptop. In
peer to peer networking, you need identical user accounts on each PC.
