I have two computers networked thru a router (to share
the internet). one computer is XP home, the other XP pro.
The computer with XP home can connect and copy files from
the XP pro computer, but when I try to connect the XP
home computer from the XP pro computer I get the
message "The server does not allow for this type of
connection". This happends with administative rights on
the users.

Good luck
