Somewhere in the Properties of tcp/ip protocol (in properties of the network connection)
In the advanced propeties has 3 option
enable netbios
default (or something like that i dont remeber) netbios
and disable netbios
by default its turned on default (the second of the 3 choices)
try to turn it into Enable Netbios
this could fix the problem
give it a try
Also make sure on the "client" that the actual login to the machine is passworded. Although ICS and a peer to peer workgroup are independent of each other.
I am having the same problem I have a thread open in Microsoft Issues. I am having the problems on an XP machine trying be authenticated by a 2000 server. So I am looking at alll possibilities yet nothing seems to be working right now.

alright, enough of the n00b wizard auto config bullshit....
pc1 has 2 nics 1 connected to your firewall which is connected to the internet
pc2 has 1 nic and is connected to pc1 via a crossover cable
pc1 has a user-defined static IP address of 192.168.1.100 on nic and 192168.2.100 on nic2
pc2 has a user-defined static IP address of 192.168.2.101
pc2 will have the following information specified in the TCP/IP config:
IP: 192.168.2.101
net mask: 255.255.255.0
gateway: 192.168.1.100
dns (if you are having it connect to the internet): [ip addresses of your dns servers from your isp]
now... if you want pc2 to be able to connect to the internet, then you will goto pc1, highlight both connections under "network connections", right click and select bridge connections
First off the consequence of not using a cross over cable is your connection will not work at all. thats it. since you have net access and can get files from the client computer then that measn your hardware is fine, config is wrong. Chances are if it is giving you an access denied message then your security settings are wrong, not the specific file ones but the computer itself. start from scrath and re set up all settings not just review, when you review things most people assume they are correct and overlook simple mistakes, by re creating all settings you are forced to double check everything. or say screw it all to hell, buy a cheap router and call it a day.
thanks for the tips but...i have a SOFTWARE firewall,not an hardware one,then pc1 has only 1 nic connected to pc2. Howewer i suppose the tasks are the same,only that pc1 has only 192.168.1.100 and i don't have to make the bridge right?Quote:

If PC1 has only 1 nic and it's connected to PC2 then how do you connect to the internet with PC1? USB? The PC with the internet connection must have 2 connection that must be bridged.
well the pc1 has a simple ADSL USB Modem, do i have to make a bridge between the LAN and the ADSL?
open windows explorer, go to folder options, view, last option is 'use simple file sharing, deselect this option and apply to all folders.
USB will be a virtual sort of NIC, so yes bridge em.
