ok, ive got one machine with xp home, and one with xp professional.. im trying to access the shared folders on the home machine over the network.. when i do, i get a password prompt for the guest account. it's disabled. when i enable the guest account, i get 'resource not accessable'. I created an account on the home machine with the same username and password as on the pro machine, but the password prompt is ALWAYS for guest and i can't change it. how do i fix this? i tried adding a password for guest, but i cant seem to do this on xp home since theres no local users and groups menu in the computer management thing..

so does anyone know how to fix this?
