enable the guest account on the machine that you want to recieve connections, this also poses a security risk, make sure you whole lan is behind a firewall

well what exactly are you wanting to do with your network?? you can take and enable the Server service in services.msc, and go to my computer right click on your hard drive and enable sharing. i think you can add the users from the other computers for direct access. you need to do this for all the computers on your network.
