I am asked for a password to look at files on another workgroup computer
Asked by

When trying to view shared files on a Windows network, On one machine with shared files I can open them OK, on another machine with shared files I am asked for a password.
I have tried to enter the password which I use to sign in to the machine containing the shared files, but it doesn't like it.
The machine which I can see into OK does not have a sign-on password.
On both Windows machines, the shares are set to allow "everyone" access. THe only difference between the two windows machines is that one requires a password to sign on, the other does not.
I can "see" both machines from the Ubuntu machine within the windows network.
