I have a peer to peer to my wife's machine. I am using Win2K and she is Win98SE. When I try to access my machine from hers, it asks for a password. I didn't install one. I can access her machine from mine OK. Where do I go from here? Thanks in advance

I answered this in the Operating Systems section, here's what I said:

Do you have the Win2K drives shared? Share them as C, D, etc, not C$, D$. You'll have to Make a New Share to do that. Make sure you set the permissions for all users to Full on the Win2K box. There's also an option for each drive that assigns the same permissions to a drive and all it's contents, that allows you to share all the files and folders on a shared drive under Win2K. I also sign on to my WinME box using the same username and password as my Win2K box, it just avoids conflicts. That should help, I had the same problem and I think that's all I did to fix it.
