This is a home network with 4 pc's connected to a D-Link 704p router. For some reason no one can access my computer on the network, but I can access theirs!
I get this message every time I try to access files on my rig from one of the other pc's:
\\XXXX is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of the server to find out if you have access permissions.
My pc is the most recent to be added to the network so I ran the network wizard.
All pc's are in the same workgroup.
I have never changed any permissions.
My pc shows up in the view workgroup computers window but if I click on it I get the above message.
File and printer sharing is turned on. Folders I want to share are enabled for sharing.
I have tried it with windows firewall on and off, no difference.
I can ping my computer from other pc's on the network with no trouble. I can access all shared files from the other computers on the network, they just can't access mine.
Swapped cable ports on the router but that made no difference either.
I'm hoping it's a setting somewhere that I've overlooked, but I can't figure out what it might be. I'm open to all suggestions and ideas.
