Hey,

I have a problem which has me stumped...

My main computer "DEL" which acts as a server but runs XP Home is causing problems.
The other two computers in the network (both running XP home) can access \\del\share but cannot access the listing of shares (\\del). I get:

"\\Del is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions.

Access is denied."

If I right click > properties the computer I get

"You do not have the appropriate access rights for this server. For more infomation, contact your network administrator"

but as I said if I enter the UNC path to a share, it works. I just can't view the "listings".

I'm stumped, i've tried:

- Disabling firewalls
- Running the network wizard
- Disabling file and printer sharing, then re-enabling it.
- Switching off all computers and router for a few minutes before switching back on
- Changing the workgroup (on all computers)
- Changing the security in safe mode
- Enabling the guest account
- Spyware scanning

And all the computers have the same accounts/passwords.

It's wierd as it's not as if i'm being rejected access as full UNC paths work, but it thinks I dont have permission to view the index.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Brett
