Filesharing troubleshooting.

[Abbaddon]

I have 2 computers at my house set up on a lan.

I can ping them use remote desktop they both can access the internet, see each other on the network, but I can't access anything.

I get this error when trying to open.

Both computers have files shared. Firewall is off.


Any Idea's?

What happens if you try \\192.168.1.2 instead?
