I have two Windows XP SP2 computers (one desktop, one laptop) networked (wired) through a Linksys router. And while each can see the other, I’m having trouble sharing a hard drive. I have set up the D drive on my desktop to be shared. I got the little warning message about sharing the root drive, but I proceeded to share it, including checking the option to let others modify my files.
When I go to the laptop, while it can view the desktop’s D drive, whenever I try to open any files in subfolders within the D drive, I get an error message about not having permission to access files in that subdirectory. I can access files in the root of the D drive, but none in subfolders. Surely I don’t have to enable sharing on every subdirectory (I hope).
If anyone can help, I’d sure appreciate it.
Many thanks,
Scott
