Hey,

I'm having problems sharing files over a home network. My roommates and I are all using XP Pro and are connected to a Linksys router. For some reason they cannot access my computer on the network. It appears in the workgroup, but an error occurs when trying to see my shares. But they are able to share between each other and I am able to pull files from them. I've tried various things but nothing has worked. Any suggestions??

Thanks in advance.

I have sharing enabled for each folder, but is there a way to enable sharing for my system?? I cant even see my shared folders from the other comps.
