I createted a workgrpoup in two pc's with xp pro, activated file sharing. I see shared folders from both pc's, but I can access shared folders from only ONE pc. It's installed on both: Client for Microsoft Networks File and Print Sharing for Microsoft Networks QoS Packet Scheduler TCP/IP Protocol What's wrong? Any help? Thanks

Okay, so you have files shared on both drives. I'll assume the whole drives are being shared, not just selected files from each drive. I'll assume that you've added all the shared locations on each computer as well. If these assumptions are wrong, they need to be fixed. Like, if the folders need to be accessed through unshared drives, that could be a problem. Personally, I set up everything to be shared on each computer. It was the easiest way to ensure everything worked.
