IPC$

[Jonathan King]

Simple 4 PC TCP/IP peer-to-peer network. The main Win 2K
Pro 'Server' can see everyone, but when client tries to
access Win2K Pro PC through Network Neighbourhood, gets
pop-up for Password for computername/IPC$ shared resource.

What am I doing wrong????

Create an identical user/password on each computer.

Perfectly normal.

You can create the identical username/password as someone
else suggested or just authenticate EXPLICITLY for the first
connection....

net use \\Machine\IPC$ * /user:Machine\UserNameOnThatMachine
password: **********
