Im at present attempting to set up a wired home network to share media files. It consists at present of 1)My main pc in my office running MCE XP 2)an x box 360 and 3) a newly constructed HTPC.
The main PC is carrying all my CD's as WMA lossless and about 1TB of DVD ISO's. So far i ve no problems streaming content to my xbox 360 (though Transcode 360 tends to have the odd problem with random films).
My main problem is settig up the network with the two PC's, initially i ran the small home network wiz on my main PC followed by on the HTPC. Ive found that the two are able to see each other i can take shared DOCs form the HTPC and see them on my main system but if i try to access the main pc from the HTPC via the network groups im informed i do not have permission to use the network resource and to contact the Admin ie me!
Ive spent about a week messing and cannot find a work around if i cannot get file sharing this way im looking at having to go out and buy a NAS.
