Hi

3 Computer son an IP network. All part of the same domain. All using windows
XP with SP2.

Problem: Only one of the PC's is able to access all the machines on the
network. When the other PC's try to access each other or this PC they get an
access denied error.

What's the reason for this and how do I fix it?

Check your firewall.

You have to go into each computer and set up SHARING for that computer.

The computers have to be set up for sharing. There may also be setup issues
with the firewall.

Make sure every pcs is in the same workgroup(same workgroup name).
Auto assign IP to each pcs and (as suggested by another poster) check
the firewall settings.
