Do you have the same usernames and passwords in both boxes?
It seems you are running a P2P over TCP/IP
make sure the passwords are the same.
If so, to check the system is working go to the
\\"OthersIP or Comp Name"\c$
It will ask you for a username & pass if the accounts are not synch.
To correct this, just change the pass on one of the boxes. or give the share permission for everyone if security is not an issue.

Can you explain how to give full access in detail please. I have nearly the same issue.
I can get one system to see both but I get the same message from the other system.
Thank you in advance,
