Network File Sharing Problem

J

Jack Gillis

My laptop is connected to my home network router via a wireless connection.
My Desktop is connected to the router via
an ethernet cable. I share files on both computers but the laptop cannot
open the files or shard folders on the
Desktop but the Desktop can open files and folders on the laptop and read
from and write to the the shared folders.

I have the both the boxes for 'Share this folder on the network' and 'Allow
network users to change my files' checked
on both the laptop and the desktop. Users on both have administrative
priveledges. Windows firewall is disabled.

When I try to open a folder on the desktop from the laptop I get the
following message.

\\Primary\Archives(A particular folder on the desktop) is not accessible.
You might not have permission to use the
network resource. Contact the admiistrator of this serve to find out if you
have access permission. (I am the
aministrator.)

And at the bottom of the message window there is this statement.

Not enough server storage is available to process the command.

The system worked fine going both ways about 2 months ago so I must have
inadvertently changed something.

Can someone help me get it going again?

Thank you very much.

Jack,

This is a well known problem, coming from an antivirus program changing an
extremely obscure registry setting.
