I have two cilent machines in a peer to peer network. One is a Win2K box
(Client1) and another is a XP Pro box(Client2). They are on the same subnet
mask and are able to ping each other. I have both firewalls turned off and
have ensured that file sharing is enabled on both machines. Both admin
accounts are named differently and currently have different passwords
assigned to them.
I can UNC into the Windows 2000 box from the XP Pro box without any
authentication popups and can view any shares to include printers. However,
when I attempt to UNC into the XP Pro box from the Win2K box, i get prompted
for Authentication. On both machines, I set Digitally Sign Server/Client
communications (when possible) to enabled and Digitall Sign Server/Client
communications (Always) to disabled. Also I set Secure Channel: Digitally
encrypt/sign secure channel data (when possible) to enabled and (Always) to
disabled. My NTLM settings are Send LM and NTLM-User NTLMv2 when possible.
My big question is do I have to set up like users with the same passwords on
both systems in order to avoid the authentication? I know this will work,
but am looking to avoid that if at all possible. Also if anyone could tell
me how I am able to UNC into the Win2K box without authentication while I get
hit with it UNCing into XP from Win2K, that would be excellent as well.
Thank You,
