98 to xp access ok; xp to 98 access denied
I have 6 pc's in a workgroup, 5 run windows xp professional, one run windows
98. I can access all files on all xp computers from the 98, but all xp computers get "access denied" when trying to access the 98 computer. The 98 computer can be seen in the workgroup computers, but when you click on it, you get "access denied" Can ping the 98 from any xp. How can I fix this? |

The 98 computer has no firewall, only Norton anti-virus.

Are you running Zone Alarm or a similar protection software package, if so check that each PC is on the trusted zone. It is a very common fault in getting networking correct Blair |

You were correct. It was the Internet Worm settings in the Norton Anti Virus
program. All OK now. Thanks very much. "Blair" wrote: Well it could be the Norton Anti Virus. Worth a check Blair "Len Anthony" wrote in message ...
