I am having issues sharing files located on the C drive of my host computer.
Both computers are running Vista Ultimate SP1. I have set up the sharing, but I get access denied when I attempt to access the files. Any suggestions on what I need to change to fix this? |

Hi
Successful Sharing involves some general consideration in Network settings, http://www.ezlan.net/sharing.html As well as specific adjustment of each computer according to what it is allowed to be shared. Vista File and Printer Sharing- http://www.microsoft.com/technet/net.../vista_fp.mspx Windows XP File Sharing - http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;304040 Printer Sharing XP - http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/u...utt_july2.mspx Windows Native Firewall setting for Sharing XP - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/875357 Windows XP patch for Sharing with Vista - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/922120 Jack (MVP-Networking).

What antivirus protection do you use? http://networking.nitecruzr.net/2005/05/your-personal-firewall-can-either-help.html http://networking.nitecruzr.net/2005...ther-help.html Beyond that, check sharing setup on both computers. Are you using Password Protected Sharing Enabled, or Disabled? http://networking.nitecruzr.net/2005/06/file-sharing-under-windows-xp.html http://networking.nitecruzr.net/2005...indows-xp.html -- Cheers, Chuck, MS-MVP 2005-2007 [Windows - Networking] http://networking.nitecruzr.net/ |
