I have shares created on three XP machines (two pro,one home) and a Win2k.
When I try and access a share on XP pro it is asking for a user/password
when I first go into share. Can I stop this behavior? If so how?
 
I had this same problem getting an ME machine to share the printer
on the XP Pro.

XP Pro demands a password at logon from non-XP machines. You can
create a user with password on the 2K machine or change the
default setting for XP pro.

Here is the article that I used to fix mine. I reset the default
so the grandkids machine can get to the printer.

hope this fixes yours.
