Hi All
I have a file server with Windows Xp Pro on and when i try to access the shares from the Win 7 machine I can only access the shares that have permissions set to everyone.
The shares that I have changed so that only my username can access wont open on the win 7 machine.
I have the same account name and password on both machines.
Hope someone can help.
Graham

Did you map drive and use the map as user/pass?
