First make sure that each account has the same password and it must not be
blank - a password is required for network access. Also make sure that user
has either individually or by group membership NTFS folder permissions to
the folder. See the link below on configuring folder permissions. XP Home
will not work unless everyone has permissions to the share/folder since XP
Home uses guest account for network share access. --- Steve
