XP Pro and XP Home trouble accessing shared drive

G

Guest

I have 3 computers on a workgroup, 2 running xp pro and 1 xp home. All 3
computers can see each other and you can access the shared docs folder of
each from any of them.The xp home computer has no trouble accessing a network
printer. I have a shared drive on 1 of the xp pro computers that can be
accessed from the other xp pro computer, but not from the 1 running xp home.
All users and passwords are the same on each computer. The error msg. is
\\computer\J_Ext_Storage is not accessible. You might not have permission to
use this network resource. Contact the admin. of this server to find out if
you have access permission. Access is denied.

Any ideas?
