Not able to access hard drive of a networked computer.

[Guest]

I get the following message when I try to access the hard drive of one of my
networked computers:

\\ComputerName is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this
network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if
you have access permissions. The network path was not found.

I am the administrator of the server, but do not know how to give permission
to use the drive. I shared the root directory of the computer.

Any help would be appreciated.

Skip,

The "path was not found" error, aka error 53, can have one of many causes.
