I have just installed a Linksys router and am trying to
get the file sharing to work. It is telling me that I
might not have given permission for the incoming computer
to have access to the shared folder. The instructions say
for Windows XP Home Edition to click on Network
Connections and then click on Incoming Connections and
choose the connection I want to let in. Well I have
no "Incoming Connections" choice under Network Tasks. I'm
lost. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks,
Rich
