winxp file sharing

(1/2) > >>

hnugz:
I have winxp pro on one computer and win98 on the other.  If I try to share files on the winxp machine and access them from my win98 machine, it asks me for a password.  The line "\\hnugz\ipc$" is my resource.  What is this?  I don't remember setting a password and i've tried all the ones I use but nothing works.  Can I disable this?

Refalm:
Make the directory you want to share non-edit.

You can do this by:

Right clicking on the shared directory | Selects prefrences | Share | Deselect "Networkusers can change my files"

Refalm:
Btw, do you know what this forum is about?  :D

"Discussions about the scourge that is the Windows family of operating systems."

hnugz:
? was this the wrong place for me post or something?

Calum:
no? this is right, it's totally about the windows scourge...
