Btfh

thank you for the hint regarding secpol.msc. As it turns out, the problem was a new policy inside there that was introduced by another program i believe. The network now performs as desired

when i try to access one windows xp machine from another xp machine (both pro version), i get the following error. http://btfh.net/error.jpg the network we are on is a simple one, no domain controller, workgroup set to workgroup. We've tried turning guest accounts on, turning them off, etc.......any suggestions?
