Since SP2 part of network wants password

[Dave]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.broadbandnet.hardware (More info?)

I have a small network, all computers running WinXP Pro
SP2, since installing SP2 2 of the computers are asking for
a password to access them, since no password was used in
setting up the network, I am at a loss as to what to do,
leaving the password blank will not work. Any Idea's?

Have you shared any folders on the computers, Dave? Systems can be part of
the same network, but unless you actually set something up as shared, there
won't be any access allowed.

This newsgroup supports Microsoft's Broadband Networking hardware and
software, and not networking in general, so if this doesn't help solve your
issue (check in Help and Support) you should post your additional issues in
the microsoft.public.windowsxp.network_web newsgroup.
