Sharing a Folder with an XP machine.
I'm not sure what's going on here, everything appears to be setup correctly.
I have gone through my Network and Sharing Center in Windows 7RC and turned everything on except Password Protected Sharing.
I have joined both Win7 and Xp machines into WORKGROUP.
I can access my Public folder and my shared printer from my Win7 machine on my XP machine.
I'm trying to share my Mp3 folder, thats on a secondary HDD in my Win7 machine. Path being "E:\Stuff\Mp3z". No matter what I change as far as permissions, adding HomeGroupuser$ to the Advanced Sharing dialog...everything I've tried, my XP machine can see the share, but I get the ".......is not accessable. You may not have permissions...." error in XP trying to open the shared folder.
It should work as is, anyone else know why it might not be?
And what's up with not having a folder icon with a Share symbol in Win7 so by looking in Explorer you can tell a folder is shared?
