I have an XP box that will not connect to network shares without asking for a
user name and password. If I fill out the user name as Guest (blank password)
the machine will then connect to most other machines shares without issue for
an hour or two. After which I have to repeat the filing out of the dialog.
There is one exception... There is a pc (with a shared printer that I need
to access from the machine above) that will not authenticate as described
above. We have to attempt to connect to another machine on the network *then*
we can connect to this PC/Printer without issue.
None of our other PC's have any problems opening each other's shared
directories/printers.
Thanks for your help.
