Christopfer,
You may be correct. I think I did this already on my User DT. I'll go
check this again, AND, do it to my ADMIN DT also.
Yes, I may have blown past this one!!!!
I will go look at this again.
I do recall that [Simple File Sharing] was a no-no with several of my
UpStream apps.
Another check this evening will happen.
Thank you. Appreciate the reply.
I may have fixed this problem. Do not comprehend what/how I did it, however.
The remote (from my other client's] access to this 'new' LAN client's
[share] now seems to work FINE! I like this ATM.
I grumble because I am old and believed I used to understand this. It
appears that I still do not understand what I have done. I freely accept
that I may NEVER KNOW!...(or accept).. LOL! I so hate dealing with
MAGIC I just can not grasp! These machines are just so fast now. It is
a personal problem clearly! My BAD!
Thanks again!
Duncan

Machine's XPpro seems to run just fine, otherwise.
This client (lib) will NOT let any other LAN client copy/move anything
into ITS' [SHARE] directory. Yet the directory is clearly SEEN from
other LAN clients (?).
I get access denied and read/write access business.
I localize this to some goof on this new client rebuild.
Am I incorrect?
I am willing to shut down the whole LAN ATM, and start again. Willing
to share internal info if necessary.
This client gets freely to the internet.
(~80 Winupdates prove this to me.)
The client clearly sees all other LAN clients.
The client gets to each 'other LAN' client's [SHARE] and freely moves
files {PULL only}.
All clients use the same ADMIN Uname and PW.
All clients have the same working desktops (ME and ADMIN).
What have I NOT done properly?
I am ready to erase and start over! It's only ~80 WinUpdates!
Unless... :)
Disable Simple File sharing most likely.
To disable simple file sharing yourself, follow these steps:
1. Click Start, and then click My Computer.
2. On the Tools menu, click Folder Options.
3. Click the View tab.
4. In the Advanced Settings section, click to clear the Use simple file
sharing (Recommended) check box.
5. Click OK.
