sharing prob

[BOB]

All my comps use XP Pro. I have set up sharing NOT using
simple file sharing and have given permission to all users
on my computer. When I try to log on to my computer from a
different computer, which has none of the same user names
or p.w.'s, my computer does not prompt the other one's to
put in a new uname and p.w. that has acces on my machine,
it just denies access. Can anyone help me with this.
Thanks.

start, run, gpedit.msc
computer configuration, windows settings, security settings, local policies,
security options, (right hand side) Network access: Sharing and security
