I have 2 WinXP computers linked by USB-USB to make a peer
network. The hard disks on each computer are formatted as
NTFS. One of the primary purposes of the peer network is to
synchronize files between the two computers. Unfortunately,
I keep getting error message when I try to access certain
folders across the network (and a suggestion to check with
the administrator to see if I have permissions for the
folder). I am just trying to access individual "My
Documents" folders, so the problem is NOT with open or
system files.
I enabled sharing on each drive and verified that sharing
was active for the peer network connection properties. I
even tried sharing the individual folders on a drive. This
worked in a couple of cases, but I still have zero access
to certain User Account folders within Documents and
Settings. None of these problem folders are password
protected or "private." And I have administrator
privaledges. Any idea why I cannot access files over the
network?
