I have the exact situation and asked similar questions
here. I was told to create identical usernames and
passwords on both machines thereby giving access to a user
from machineA to machineB. This works however, you have to
play with the permissions and security for the folder you
are trying to share. Make sure that you add the username
that you want to have access and then make sure that
username has the right permissions set. All this is done
by right clicking on the folder, properties, etc.
Hope that helps,
Jim
