sharing violaton error

[Adz]

We have a small network of 5 PC's OS are 2-ME, 1-98, 1-XP
PRO, 1-win 2000. All PC's comunicate/share files with
each other fine apart from 1 PC running Win ME which has
an Intermittent Fault when trying to open files from the
XP PRO PC which acts as the main File Server. I get an
Error Message (from the ME PC)"A sharing violaton error
has occured" I'm using TCP/IP on all PC's
Any Ideas?
..

XP can't access ME

if xp can't access me and you don't have firewall running on the ME, some
settings on xp need to be changed. I used to have a document for this but I
may lose it. Try this: on xp, open windows explorer>Tools>Folder
options>General, check Use Windows classic desktop under Active Desktop.
