Windows XP is very odd when it comes to looking up shares from other |
| 2 |
computers. Go into your connection properties, uncheck File and Print |
| 3 |
Sharing, then restart. Add File and Print Sharing back in. Do the same |
| 4 |
with the guest account next. Finally, very temporarily share your first |
| 5 |
hard drive just to enable file sharing. Once it's on, you can immediately |
| 6 |
turn it back off. Reboot and you should be good to go. |

This applies to any type of incoming machine, be it linux, windows, mac. |
