Hi, i have just set up a home network, with both computers running xp pro.

My pc conncects to the internet and everyone else connects through me to gain access. When i tried to gain access to my PC through the my 2nd pc through the network wizard i keep getting asked for a password for my machine.

How do i remove or change the password?

Thanks
 
User Accounts in the Control Panel... You may wish to create an account on the primary pc that is identical to the account on the secondary pc... that way, when you try to connect, the secondary pc will pass the credentials and be authenticated without prompting for another password... or you can map a network drive and just click the option to reconnect and enter a password once...

Hope this helps... debonairOne
