I have set up certain drives on a Windows XP workgroup network to fully
shared. However, on certain computers, I have found that only files which
were in the shared folder at the time the share was established are
accessible from the network.

I can see the files in the shared folders, but I can't access them (open or
copy them).

In order to access all files, I have to "unshare" the folder, and then reset
the share.

What can be causing this?

All computers on the network are using WinXP professional SP2.

They inherit the permissions from where they were copied from.
