Network file sharing between xp and 7
I'm trying to set up shared folders on an XP computer, to be viewed on a windows 7 computer.
My setup is this:
Windows 7 (ZombyGeek-PC) --------- Router --------- Windows XP (Desktop-PC)
Both computer's are under the same workgroup name: ZOMBYHORDE
I can access the "Public Folders" in windows 7 from windows xp, but I cannot access the "Shared Documents" folder in windows xp from windows 7.
When in windows 7, clicking "Desktop-PC" from the network window, i'm prompted for a user name and password. I've typed in the windows xp username and password AND the windows 7 user name and password, but both say "Login Failure: unknown user name or bad password." Which is not true.
I don't know what else to do. I've been searching Google all day.
