Pinging but no sharing

Hello,
There is no sharing with my system & server but they are pinging with each other. I have checked firewall setting. I have checked antivirus firewall setting also but after that there is no sharing. I gave the path of server in Run. I typed there ''\\server's IP address''. The message is showing "the network path was not found".Configuration: Windows XP Internet Explorer 6.0

Look on your network interface. Enable Client for Microsoft Network.

I encountered the same problem a while back. Install this small software called IP Messenger in both computers. Then you can send files between the computers after connecting them as long as they can ping each other. Get it as ipmsg.org (change to the english version of the page). It is sure to work.

Disable firewall (Windows firewall, antivirus firewall, etc) temporary, after that make sure you enabled file sharing correctly and test again. You can also have a look on this simple file sharing or share file with user/group permission articles to see any wrong/missing configuration.
