User Logon Required on some Networked machines

[S Carter]

We have 8 Computers running XP Pro on a peer to peer
network.
They all show up in the workgroup.
All users are logged on as limited users.
All are accessable over the network.
From a user account on my laptop that does not exist on
the other machines I can see all the shared folders just
fine on 3 machines. The other machines require me to login
with a user name and password from my laptop before I can
access anything. I can do that successfully, but I need to
be able to access the shared folders with out a logon
being required.
I added the user name to the computer that was requiring
the logon and now the message comes up when trying to
access that computer to contact system administrator and
it no longer gives the option to logon.
Thanks
