Browsing other computers in a Workgroup

M

M$

I have 2 PCs (XP Pro) connected in a workgroup. From PC a, I can
connect/browse PC b by providing appropriate credentials, userid/password,
but when I try to connect/browse PC a from PC b, I'm prompted for a password
only? The userid field is grayed out with the Guest account in it.

Where/how do I find the setting to make PC b prompt for the userid as well?

Note: This does not happen if the PC was ever part of a domain.
