A little progress!  From LT of desktop it now does not ask for login name
and PW and shows the C drive folder and a couple of other shared folder.
But still says I don't have permission to access. Login from DT to LT still
asks for login name and password and denies access says user name is
invalid: \\DELLLAPTOP\Rocky

If you have the same login/password on all machines it makes it easier. Also
you must have file sharing turned on for all computers that you want to do
it with. (Just type file sharing into the search box on the start menu.) If
they are all Windows 7 then use the "Homegroup" feature and let Windows
manage it all. (I don't but that's just because of what I do.)

Also, if you are using a security suite that includes a firewall, that
firewall may be causing problems. Turn that off until you figure it all out.

Windows 7 Ultimate. I have another box on the network and have no problem
passing files back and forth.  No login requested.  Don't know why.

Dear Lists:
 
Time to figure this out.  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?
