i have two computers (A and B) networked via linksys router both on win2k. i can ping computer B via computer A by computer name or ip address and they ping fine using both methods. the problem is i have drives mounted on A and i can't restore the drives (it has been fine for about a 1/2 year, but just started like this since last nite). i can't login to B at all and i get this msg: "Microsoft Windows Network: Logon failure: the user has not been granted the requested logon type at this computer. the connection has not been restored"

from the sound of that msg it seems as if i'm being blocked off access from computer B on computer A. how would i go about UNblocking myself, i had no idea taht i could get blocked off. i haven't touched any setting or anything of sorts it just happened all of a sudden...

any help appreciated...thanks!

Sounds like you should verify that the appropriate drives still have sharing turned on.

shouldn't this be in the networking forum?

ehh... my guess is to reinstall windows networking and recreate your shares.
