Hi everybody!

I am having a "huge" problem @ home. I have a Windows SBS 2003 on two computers, Windows XP Pro on 3 and Windows XP Home on 1. All the computers (except Win XP HOME of course!) are connected to a DOMAIN that one of the SBS computers are running.

My problem is;

I have a printer on one of the Win XP Pro computers, a Kyocera FS-720 (via USB). It works fine on the computer it is installed on but when I try to connect it on any other computer on the DOMAIN I get this error: 'Unable to add the printer connection...' and some more text.

- I see the printer in the Directory Listing.

- I have "Full Control" set for "Everyone" and then each user that will use the printer.

When I try to open the computer (Start -> Run -> \\computername) I get a user / pass dialog and no matter what I try, I can not log on and see shared folders / files or printers!

Can someone please help me or point me in the right direction?

Sincerely,

Magnus
