Why do I continue getting an access denied error when I try to access my
primary Vista hard drive from a W2K machine? I've shared the drive and made sure all the networking and sharing options are on. The only option that isn't on is the password protected sharing option. I don't need that. Both computers are under the same workgroup name. The vista machine can access the w2k hard drive, but not the other way around. The w2K can access the vista public folder, but not the primary drive. ?? |
