It'll be the name of the main box followed by the username you created when you set it up, so \\mainbox\username, and then I guess, no password. You can find out the name of the computer by looking in Computer Properties, and the username by checking the local users bit on Control Panels. If it doesn't like not having a password, you can always create one, and then set an autologin on the box to put the password in for you without any prompting.

I am trying to get my laptop - which I only use for travel - to talk to my primary box so I can upload stuff I need to take with me. I've been working around this for a long time by copying to my external HD and plugging that into the LT. But that's soooo unprofessional. When I try to connect to the main box from the LT or from the LT to the main box I get a dialog box asking me to Enter Network User Name and Password but I have no idea what this could be. Main box does not have a login, just fires right up - LT has a login - user name and password, but that does not work as credentials on either box. Any ideas how to find the Network User Name and Password?
