Howdy,
I network two home PCs, via a wireless Linksys router and QWest modem. I
have established the home network on Windows XP (SP2) just fine and I have
access from either computer to all the drives and folders that I have allowed
to share (in the properties, I selected the sharing option for each drive and
folder) on each computer. However, there is one Iomega HD portable H drive
on one on my machines that will not come up for opening under my Network
places from the other PC. It says that permission is not authorized by the
administrator or the drive is not available (or something of that nature; the
message I get if the other PC is not turned on for example). It used to work
just fine and open up for view and usage with all the folders on the drive.
What has happened and how can I fix it? I have verified that sharing is
selected for this drive, so the other PC should be able to see it out of its
Network Places. Thanks in advance!
