I've tried messing with all the settings I can find, but I can't get my networked computers to share nicely!

All my machines are part of the same network, same workgroup, but they always ask the other machines for a account name and password when trying to access their shares. Since the machines are running Windows 2000 & XP, is there a way around is? Or is the only way to copy account from one machine to another?

Thanks for the help!
