I have a simple peer-to-peer network which is as follows.
Computer 1 - Windows XP Pro SP2
Computer 2 - Windows 98SE
Computer 3 - Windows 98SE
Computer 4 - Windows ME
I have just discovered that my other computers can no longer connect to new
shares on the XP Pro computer. If I set a new folder to share, I get an
error message on one of the other computers that the share is not
accessible and access is denied. I have set the permission to Everyone
(which is how all the old shares are set, and they work fine) and still
access is denied on any new shares. The old shares are accessed fine.
This is a new behavior, about a month ago, this was not a problem. I'm not
sure what changed on the system, but it has me stumped. I want to know how
to fix this. If I need to share a new folder, I cannot. No one can access
it, even with setting the Permission for Everyone to access. I do not use
the Windows firewall, I have ZoneAlarm Pro and even with it turned off this
behavior persists. Can anyone shed some light on this? I need to fix it.
Thanks!
