WIN XP Pro password problem on network
I just hooked a WIN XP PRO Dell on a small business (peer to peer) network. I can see and connect from this Dell to any other computer on the network.
But if I go to a different PC and go My Network Places, I can see the Dell fine but when I go and click on the compuer icon it shows as logon name (I'm assuming) //KIM/IPC$ and asks for a password. When I enter the password of the admin of the Dell (spano), it says incorrect password.
I believe I have to enter the admin password because it is not asking for a user name. With XP Pro, can I change the admin password just like WIN 2000?
Also, should I create a second user on the Dell with a password so other computers can access this computer with a different user? Would this give me the option on other computers to select a user instead of just showing //KIM/IPC$?
I am pretty new to WIN XP in a network and I'm having trouble finding info on the matter.
Thanks for any helpful suggestions...
