But is the administrator account using the same password on both machines?
Some lose months on this thinking you can type in the password. There's also your firewalls but time and time again it's the old mismatched account name or password and the new networker that thinks they can type in the password.

Hi all.
I'm stumped - spent an hour searching for a topic like this - and I know the answer is out there - but I cannot find it. Can anyone point me to the right answer?
I have 2 Windows 7 PCs on a switch. I can see the "Users" folder on the other PC over the network from both sides. But trying to open the administrative share (SHCPC\C$) Windows throws me "Access denied".
From another computer I can get my hands on - no problem. I can access the admin share without hassle.
Why is one computer allowed, another not? I cannot figure out a difference between the systems. Small maybe - the user names I'm trying from, is the same on both computers. But I even try using login account "SHCPC\SirHC" from SH2PC, and vice versa, "SH2PC\SirHC" from SHCPC, passwords are the same. Nothing, just "Access denied", as if the passwords were wrong. And I know I have it right, because I log in from another PC with those credentials.
Ideas?
