I have 3 PC network. The PCs are 2 desktops (XP Pro and XP Home), the 3 PC
is a laptop with wireless connection (XP Home). They are all coonected
through a DLink DI-624 wireless router and hub.

The problem is from the XP Pro, i'm able to see and access share files on
the XP Home PCs. I;m unable to access shared files from the Home PC that are
on the PRO PC.

How do I resolve?

Ensure Simple File Sharing is enabled on the XP Pro machine (double-click My
Computer, Click Tools, Folder Options, View, last option is Simple File
Sharing)

On all XP PC's do the following:

click Start, click Run, type:
net user guest /active:yes (and hit enter)


Then, click Start, click Run, type:

control userpasswords2 (and hit enter)

Click Guest, click Reset Password and then click OK without entering a new
password.

Finally, download and install this registry patch on all XP PCs and reboot
for
changes to take effect:
