Angry Shares

I have a dual boot Redhat 9 and Windows XP. I have mapped the XP drive, and sharred it, but another computer on the network running XP cannot open it.

Please help

That still has not resolved the problem. This is the error message

\\localhost\c is not accessible. You might not have permissio to use this network resource. Contact the administartor of this server to find out if you have access permissions.

No network provider accepted the given path.
