If windows xp is on one machine, what is on the other machine? XP? How are they networked? Through a router, hub, crossoverwire? If not a router, then make sure you assign IP addresses.

(a) Make sure guest account is enabled on the host machine.

(b) ensure that the host machine doesn't have the same username as the one that you are trying to log on as (as this will cause it to try and resolve the username/pass as oppose to commingin through the guest account!)

Did you set up file sharing also? If you do not like my post feel free to point out your opinion or my errors.

How many computers on the network, and do they have static IP address? ping address for connectivity, and make sure there is a shared directories, If a network domain is running make sure machines are logging into the domain controller before trying to connect to other machines.

A little more info is needed about your setup, for better detailed answers.
