Networking help :D

[hektik]

i have a network between 2 computers both on Windows XP Pro and with Service Pack 1. I deleted all the accounts on both machines so both machines log in on administrator, and before you tell me its dangerous i know so i setup loads of things to stop antying happening, basically what i want to do is when i type in the address bar "\\<computer name>\c$" is for a box to come up for you to type in the username as administator and then the password. I can remember doing it once where the password was the same as the password to get into the computer. The problem i got now is that the box says username : "administrator\GUEST" and its shaded out so i cant change it.

Does anyone have any ideas on helping me with this.

what is the machine name in each case
looks like one of them is called administrator
go to the start menu
and run , then enter cmd and click ok for a command prompt
at each command prompt type the word "hostname" without the quotes.


that will return the hostname.

One is called Alex (my name funnily enough) and the other is Sarah. The host is Alex the client is Sarah. Both user names are Administrator
