Have two windows networked computers, one running Windows200 proffessional and the other running Windows ME, the later cant look into shared files on Windows 2000 computer. However windows 2000 computer can access shared files on Windows ME computer. It keeps asking for password when trying to access from windows ME computer, but the passwords are not recognised.

However Win2k installed on diffrent partion on Windows ME machine can access Win2K files on the other computer.

What should I do so Windows ME can look into files on Windows 2000?

I have checked the permissions for the shared folder on Win2K machine, "Everyone" box is checked.

Thanks.

The user name and password used to log on to the ME machine must also have that account created on the Win2K machine.

What file system is the Win2k using, Fat32, or NTFS? Win ME cannot access NTFS files. IF NTFS try: Share Permissions: Everyone Full Control, NTFS: Everyone Full Control.
