Look in the local security policy and make sure "access this computer from
the network" is set correctly.

Dear Aaron:

Thank you ever so much for pointing me to :local security
policy. That was indeed the solution.

Thanks again.

sounds like my problem, but...

excuse my ignorance, but where exactly is "local security policy?"

 

[CWanyoike]

Thanks a lot

Thanks so much. I too was struggling to solve this but searched on pcreview and that was the solution to my problem. Local security policy can be found by start->run->gpedit.msc->computer configuration->windows settings->security settings->local policies

thanks, trying to nework printers from a 64 bit machine to a 32 bit machine is not easy, thanks for the info on user permissions, i wondered where it had gone since it wasnt in the same place as W2K. here is how i did it if it helps anyone

How to network printers from 64 bit to 32 bit machines



Add printer

Use the following port-LPT1

Select printer from list

Do not share this printer

Print test page – no



After installation

Enter network share name such as: \\asus64\1100

Select new port and apply

Group policy edits

And make sure you check the "Deny access to this computer from the network" setting because any entries there override any entries in "Access this computer from the network"
