I have 3 computers on a network. 1 with windows XP home,
1 with XP pro and one with win 2k. the computer with win
XP home works with both computers but windows XP pro and
win 2k will see each other but can't shear files and
printer. Can anybody help?

You need to take the logged on users account and create the same account
name and password on the W2K and XP systems. XP Pro and W2K are set up with
a different security context in mind, so you will need to create the like
username/password on each system. :) Then make sure the shares are shared
etc.
