Setting user permissions in networking

[Dan]

I'm running XP home edition on my main computer, and I set up a Linksys
wireless network to link 2 pc's to it. One of the PCs is old and has
Windows Milennium on it. I've got it so that it can access the internet
through the wireless connection, but I can't seem to get it to file share.
The Linksys site says file/printer sharing between an ME computer and XP can
be a problem and that you need to set up user permissions to do so. It
refers you to the MS web site to learn how to set the permissions. But I
don't see it. Can anybody give me a hand with it?


Thanks,

Dan

Yes, ME is a nasty operating system, but you should have no problem
doing file/printing sharing between it and a box running XP. Here are
some links to help:
