The error message when clicking on the target computer icon in the network
connections window:

\\comp2 is not accessible. You may not have permissions to use this network
resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have
access permission.

Logon failure: the user has not been granted the requested logon type at
this computer.

I am trying to access the target computer from comp1 using administrator
account.
Windows XP version 2002.

Please advice as to what service or policy needs to be changed on the target
computer inorder to access the network resource .

Usually this problem is caused by a misconfigured firewall. Go through
this network troubleshooter by MVP Hans-Georg Michna. If you take the
time to use the t-shooter, it will pinpoint the problem area(s).
