P2P Workgroup. One of PCs can’t see other.

by click . Updated 20 years, 5 months ago

I have two computers AA and BB on a workgroup WRKGRP. I have ZoneAlarm installed on
both. I am logged on as Administrator with password PW on both. I have a folder
FLDR on drive C: on both. I can view FLDR and it’s files from BB on pc AA in
My Network Places, but when I try the reverse to access FLDR from AA on BB I get
\\AA is not accessible. Access denied.

I’ve tried this with the Firewall completely turned off (not running on either pc)
with the same result. I’ve check and WRKGRP is the workgroup name on both from
My Computer/properties/computer name. I can ping from BB using both the ip address
of AA and the computer name successfully. I have repaired the winsock in case of
corruption. I have done a repair from control_panel/network_connections/lan_connection.

I really do not want to uninstall ZoneAlarm due to the large number of settings made.
Can anybody help me out with some other alternatives?
