I've done the wizards and set up the network on on my computers that both are
on. I'm using a linksys router with two desktop computers on ethernet
connections. I can access files on the 2nd computer from the host computer,
but I can't do it from the 2nd computer to the host computer. I receive the
following messages:

When go to this screen:

i receive this message:

i'm not sure what I can do. i've been through tutorials and I don't see what
i've done wrong. I need for someone to possibly tell me how to override this
so that I can establish a shared printer between the two computers. I have
the folders I want to be shared selected to do so on the host (the printer
and other files) and the same for the 2nd computer, but I can access it one
way and not the other. Please help me. i'm willing to provide other necessary
information.

You should try posting to a Linksys support area or perhaps the
microsoft.public.windows.network_web newsgroup. This newsgroup supports
Microsoft's Broadband Networking hardware and software only.
