The appropriate network cards and services are installed
in all of my computers. All three of my computers,
Windows 95, 98, and XP, recognize each other through the
network. My 95 and 98 computer can access the XP shared
folder, but the XP computer cannot access either the 95
or 98 shared folders. Every time I attempt to access
either computer's shared folders it says that access is
denied. My 95 and 98 computer cannot access each
others's shared folders either. When I told the computer
to share a folder on the 95 and 98 it asks me what
computers do I want to be able to access the shared
folder. I tried to enter computer's in but it says I
cannot view the list of computers at this time. I have
my network set up perfectly with the ability to use
internet and printer sharing on all 3 computers but I
cannot share on the Windows 95 and 98 computers. What
should I do?
 
Make sure file sharing is enabled on all pre XP machines.
sounds like that is the issue.
