Is the printer configured as shared on both computers? Just a thought-- Jackie

  Subject: [pchelpers] my password problem



  this is making me crazy!  I am missing some little something.

  i have my win XP computer networked "pier to pier" with my daughter's Win 98
  computer.  From my XP computer i can access all the shared files on her
  win98 computer.

  (Here's the problem): When my daughter tries to access my XP computer from
  her sin98 computer a box pops up asking for a password. NONE of the
  passwords that we are using on either comuter work.
  (she IS logging onto the win 98 computer at start up).

  aside:
  Funny thing:  Win XP  Wizard set up a "remote gateway" so my daughter can
  use the modem and dialup internet connection in my computer.  This works
  just fine. When she clicks on I.E it automaticly connects her to the
  internet through my modem.  When she finishes there is a little "double
  computer monitor" icon beside the clock that she clicks then chooses
  "disconnect".

  When she trys to print, the same "password box" pops up and will not accept
  any password.  I have the same users with the same passwords listed on both
  computers. I have lots of files shared on the XP computer for her to see

  I have tried everything i can think of.

  any suggestions?  Please!

  thanks,
  J. Setcer
