    Access is denied
    I have two computers in my house and am trying to get them networked. My first computer can access the second computer, but the second computer can not access the first. Instead, I get this message

    "\\(COMPUTER NAME)\shareddocs 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."

    Any ideas? I would really like to be able to share documents..

    I see this when you have two different operating systems here, either xp/vista or vista home/ultimate or something.

    This may only happen the first time you boot up also.

    The easiest thing to do is to open up the resource (parent or root folder in Windows) and make sure that the full path from the root has the proper permissions to access the folder. This is done by right clicking on the folder(s) and selecting Sharing.

    You may also have to enable net guest login on some vista machines.
