I have just setup a simple 2 computer network. Computer A
is Windows XP Pro....computer B is Windows XP Home.
Computer B can access computer A with no problems
(Internet sharing, printer sharing, folder sharing).

The problem is when Computer A tries to access a shared
folder on computer B. It gets the following message:

"You might not have permission to use this network
resource. Not enough server storage is available to
process this command."

I need help in resolving this issue. Thanks!

Could be "Simple File Sharing" (turn it off).
Could be Firewall on Computer A (turn it off or better yet - configure it
correctly).
I would say it was a user/password thing, but obviously you have created
users that have the same name/password.

Obviously you are making a connection if it tells you the above message. So
they see one another fine. However, the user that is trying to access the
other computer obviously does not have the necessary permissions to do what
you are trying to do. Give that user the permissions needed on the
"refusing" computer.
