    HI

    I have two networked computers belonging to the same workgroup: one with Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 64-bit and the other with Windows XP Pro SP3.

    On the XP computer, I shared a folder allowing only the access to the Administrators group.

    Now, from Windows 7, I can see this shared folder, but when I try to use it, the no authorization message is displayed.

    Why the Login window is not displayed?

    THANKS

    BYE

    Hi,

    Create a same user name / password on both 7 & XP machine and try login with that.

    If the two computers have different login, as I could do to access the shared folders on the XP computer without compromising the security of this computer?

    Thanks

    Bye
