Guest KCav Posted June 18, 2008 Posted June 18, 2008 When I click on System on the Control Panel, and then click on the tab for Computer Name, I see my computer is named AVS and it is part of workgroup WHQ. When I do the same for another computer I see it is named Toad, and is a member of the workgroup WHQ. When I click on View Workgroup Computers I see AVS and Toad, however when try to Open Toad I am immediately denied access. Why aren't I asked for ID and PW? -- KC

Guest KCav Posted June 19, 2008 Posted June 19, 2008 Re: Denied access without being asked for ID & PW I left clicked on My Computer, right clicked on drive C and made it sharable. This had no effect on the problem I am having. Access is being denied from another computer on the LAN to another. Both are viewable in View workgroup computers. -- KC "Ghostrider" wrote: > > KCav wrote: > > > When I click on System on the Control Panel, and then click on the tab for > > Computer Name, I see my computer is named AVS and it is part of workgroup > > WHQ. > > > > When I do the same for another computer I see it is named Toad, and is a > > member of the workgroup WHQ. > > > > When I click on View Workgroup Computers I see AVS and Toad, however when > > try to Open Toad I am immediately denied access.
