canadian397 Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 could be password protected, that was the case for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotrod Posted January 3, 2004 Author Share Posted January 3, 2004 no.... when i was running win2k on both machines i had no problem connecting to an admin share like c$ when i knew the username and password of a machine on the other box........ you would think that if you bought xp PRO that ms might have a clue that you knew what you were doing.....

cpugeniusmv Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 i don't know if this will help or not... but is the guest account disabled on either or both of the machines? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
