This is weird. In the network and sharing center (advanced sharing settings) I disable password protected sharing, for both home/work and public, and save changes, but no matter what, whenever I go back in there, they're still enabled! I've tried every other way of accessing drives on my win7 box from my xp box (setting a password for the win7 account, user permissions, creating an identical account name on 7, having full permissions for "everyone") but I simply can't access anything. The message I'm getting at the moment:
logon failure: user account restriction. possible reasons are blank passwords are not allowed, logon hour restrictions, or a policy restriction has been enforced.
The only thing I've been able to do is format my drives to fat32, and then these permissions go away, but I really don't want to have to do that... btw, I can access my xp box just fine from the 7 one, even though all drives are ntfs.
