    quick question

    Laptop - crossover - Pc
    = Limited conectivity

    so i gave the lan connection ips close to each other, everytime i try access either computer it asks me for a password,

    eg computer name antigirl
    on the computer = bionic when i try access antigirl, i get a login box
    Username = Antigirl/Guest
    Password

    i read the solution name both accounts the same, and give them passwords = doesnt work.

    Both XP home.

    bah

    both on the same workgroup?
    get a similar message if some brings over a laptop thats set to mshome instead of our workgroup name.

    hmm good guess,
    pc was 'workgroup'
    and laptop was = 'mshome'

    changed laptop to 'workgroup' and restarted,

    no luck :(

    have you run the file and printer sharing wizard on both pcs?
    to make sure id set them both to a new workgroup and run the wiz again to apply all settings fully.
