Hi Paula,

The "not have permission...path was not found" error has 2 likely causes.
# Browser conflict.
# Firewall problem.

Look for a misconfigured / overlooked firewall. Then check for a browser
conflict, using browstat. Read these articles, and relevant linked articles,
please:

<http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/05/browstat-utility-from-microsoft.html>

Then provide "browstat status" and "ipconfig /all" for all 3 computers, as
instructed in this article:
