Hello,

I have encountered an odd problem whilst trying to set up some folder
sharing on my home PC's. Basically, I have three folders I wish to
share. The first worked without any real problems but the other two deny
me access.

The folders are located on the main PC, and are not within the Vista
partition (separate hard drives)

I have:
Network discovery: On
File Sharing: On
Public Folder Sharing: Off
Printer Sharing: On (This works by the way)
Password Protected Sharing: Off
Media Sharing: Off

I am trying to access those three folders on my notebook which are set
up as the same above.

Even though I have password sharing set to "off", it still asks for a
password when I try to access the main PC. Yet, I have no password set
on my accounts for this PC, only the laptop. Should I still be asked for
a password even though none is set up? I can just enter my user name and
no password and I get the same response, i.e. I can access one of the
folders but none of the other two I set up.

When I try to access the folders that deny me, it says the folder is
available but the user account I am logged on with was denied access.

What is odd is that all three folders are set up exactly the same with
"Everyone" set with full permission.

Does anyone have an idea how I could progress here?
