Windows XP Remote Sharing

[magicandmight]

I have a customer who has 4 computers 3 of the computers are unable to connect to the last computer where as the 4th computer has no problem connecting to the other computer. The fire wall is recommended though I changed it to off to see if it helped, it did not. Does anyone have any idea on this?

If you are just talking about Remote Desktop see what options are selected in System Properties/ Remote.

Otherwise you can try these.

Simple File Sharing- enabled

Some Antivirus software also have hidden firewall components too.
