file sharinge etc problem

Oct 28, 2005 1 Replies

Hi



I have a wireless network, 1 laptop connected wireless, 1 PC connected via cable to router. Connects ok to internet on both and works fine. On trying to connect to each other, PC can connect to laptop and see files and printer. Laptop can see PC on network but when trying to connect to see files gets accessed denied, I assume from PC. Strangely enough, laptop can use printer on PC ok. Have disabled firwall on both but still same. Any ideas on what could be the problem?



TIA



David

Sounds like file sharing on the PC hasn't been enabled and/or that insufficient permissions have been given to the user on the laptop.
