been doin' that and still no luck...

I was using the built in firewall feature. Local Area Connection Properties, Advanced tab, Internet Connection Firewall. I do not believe I have ever had that restart error before...

i'd remember fiddling with the built in firewall before i had the problem. i'd expect your proposal to work so i turned it off but still no luck... appreciate your input though. i remember that right after i fiddled with the tcp/ip configurations so i could access the intranet (not internet, inTRAnet), that is exactly when the drives disappeared.

i'm running XP Pro on two computers. i use one of the computers (the client) to remotely administer the second one (the server) via XP's built in remote desktop connection feature. before, i had it perfectly set so all of the drives of the client would appear on the server, whenever i connected the two via remote access. last night, i tried setting up my LAN so i could connect to my school's inTRAnet, and that is when all of the client's drives disappeared from the server. i've tried backtracking and setting everything back, but no avail. can anyone help me?
