Make sure there is a user on the workgroup PC, whose username and password
matches the user you use on the domain PC. then when you try to acess the
workgroup PC from the domain PC, it will think you are that user. At the
minute I believe it is authenticating you as a guest uer which may be
disabled, at any rate you don't want to be authenticating as guest.
