ports needed for access to Admin$ share

[Guest]

Can someone tell me what ports to open in Windows Firewall to allow access to
the Admin$ share? Ever since SP 2 and the latest service packs have been
applied, I am unable to access the admin$ share on my network pc's---unless I
completely disable windows firewall.

Thanks for any advice!

The Admin$ share is simply a part of file sharing. Are there other shares that
are accessible, with WF enabled and configured? Then you have another problem.
