Access to network from different user accounts

[Guest]

On one pc I am running XP home with 3 different users. One of these users CAN access a networked pc, the two others CANNOT. Where are these settings defined?

What errors do you get? Have you created *all* accounts & passwords
identically on *all* computers? That's the most common cause of this
problem.

Hell
I do see the machine on the network after a long search. when going in further I do get the error message (in german!) that I do not have the right to access it.

The accounts were set up before the network. I believe that they are all the same. But I do not know which parameters to check. There must obviously be a difference. Is there a reference list for what to check?

On the machine you're trying to connect to, go to the user account section
in control panel and see if it includes the user account name you're using
on the computer you're trying to connect *from*. Change the password to
match what you're using on that computer, if need be.

I checked as you said. It does not include any of the names that I am trying to connect *from*. Nonetheless, one user account on the machine I try to copnnect *from* works and the other does not. So I do presume that it must be a setting on the machine I try to connect *from*. BTW, I cannot connect *to* that machine either. There must be some place to set these properties. I have searched everywhere I know but no luck so far.
