Access Denied trying to access documents within shared folder

[Ian Bethell]

Two machines on XP Pro network.

I have mapped to a drive on the other computer and used the username and
password of the administrator on the other machine.

I can browse all directories, but can't access the documents folders within
the "Documents and settings" folders of any users... just returns "Access
denied"

Any help much appreciated.

Ian.

Nobody can.
You cannot do that either in the C:\windows folder or the \Program
files folder. Just create your shared folders in the root of the c:\
drive or use the Shared Documents folder already provided.
