Question Home Network problem
Ok I have two computers running Vista Basic. Ones a desktop I built, the other a Dell laptop. The laptop can go in and access my desktops files. In fact I have WMP streaming my music. But the desktop cant access the laptop. It gives me this error message:
\\M3 is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions.

Logon failure: user account restriction.Possibe reasons are blank passwords not allowed, logon hour restrictions, or a policy restriction has been enforced.
I've went into Network so many times and checked all the settings. They're all identical. I've also read the help files and none of that got me anywhere obviously.

So to reiterate: Both computers can see one another, laptop can access the desktop, desktop can't access the laptop.

Thanks for any help!
