I've been tinkering with this problem for a while now, and gotten
so far that I can enter "\\computername\c$" in windows explorer and
connect to the c: drive of the computer in question.
Funny thing is that still can't browse using My Network Places, but
(as seen above) I can connect directly to a computer of my
choice...
Any ideas on this, anybody?
Thx.
