Hello, since I have reinstalled XP Pro on one of the computers of this network , this computer is still seen by the other computers of the network but when I try to access the disks of this computer I got the message: “ Computer is is not accessible, you may not have the authorizations to share the resources…†I had activated the standard file sharing option through Explorer/File options as well as the individual sharing option for each disk. Is there anything else that I have to do? Thank you.
 
Hello
Have you turned off the firewalls?

There is no need to turn off the fire wall, only turn of the firewall if it is the ICF as this doesn't work properly on a LAN
if you have another firewall you might need to configure it for the network

last of all have you got the correct permissions to access the drives
