I cannot get my two home computers to file share. They both recognize each
other when I go to network places, and on one of the computers I am able to
search the others files that have been shared.

However, on the other computer I get the following message:
"\\NAME is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this
network resource. Contact the network adminstrator of this server to find
out if you have access permission.

The network path was not found."

Does anyone know how I can solve this problem?!?!?!

THANKS!

I would double check that they both are setup to file share, But I think the
problem is a firewall can block it and cause you to get that message. I have
had it happen with TrendMicro's firewall not Windows Firewall that is built
on.
Sorry if this doesn't help.
