share no longer asks for login but denies access

R

Rich

I have a peer to peer network (3 PCs, 2 workgroups) Up until today I could
access the share on the PC in one workgroup by clicking on the PC in Windows
Network and logging in. For some reason now it does not request login
information but just denies me access unless I permit Everyone access.

How can I restore the login box?

I've completely recreated the share with another folder but still no login
access box. I'd prefer NOT to have to have EVERYONE given access to this
share but rather would prefer that in order to access this share you would
need to log in. This is the way it was working up until yesterday. How can I
get that set up again?

Thanks,
Rich
